Notes

This salad is a meal for one. If it's for more, just multiply by the number of people.
If it's a side dish, I suggest you do not add protein and that you multiply the quantities by the number of people.
The salad dressing serves up to 2 people. If it is for 4, double the amount of ingredients.
2022 UPDATE common tomatoes and strawberries have been retested. They passed from FODMAP free to a limited low FODMAP safe serving size of 2.29oz | 65g. On both cases, more has excess fructose. This is why the recipe calls for only one of these ingredients to avoid FODMAP stacking. For more information check the Monash FODMAP’s latest updates.
