Baked Pesto Salmon A layer of zippy Basil-Cilantro Pesto (page 178) really turns up the flavor on this easy sheet pan meal. When you’re making the pesto, be sure to omit the garlic if you’re following a low-FODMAP diet. And as a rule, it’s best to add the pesto only during the last 5 minutes of cooking to maximize taste and nutrients. Of course, you can enjoy the pesto raw, too: Drizzle it on practically anything, especially roasted vegetables and meats.

Skirt Steak with Seasoned Sweet Potato Wedges and Broccoli I never get tired of steak and fries: It’s one of my favorite treats! But I’ve learned how to make it much healthier, swapping deep-fried, potato-based fries for oven-baked sweet potato wedges. I think they’re even better than the regular version, especially when seasoned with AIP-approved spices! A side of nutrient-rich roasted broccoli rounds this meal off perfectly.
