Eggamole - a FODMAP friendly spread
The boiled egg is the FODMAP intolerant's friend but it is one of the most boring foods ever.
In my ceaseless search for protein rich and tasty sandwich fillings, I invented this. This spread saw me through many a dark day in the search for a treatment that worked.
Like the Tonnato spread, it goes on sandwiches and dry biscuits, or as an addition to a salad.
Avocadoes are are high in Polyols (the P in FODMAP), but in the serving quantity for this recipe, should be tolerable to most on a low FODMAP diet.
INGREDIENTS
METHOD
This will last in the fridge for up to a week but it discolours so is best made in small batches.

EGGAMOLE
makes 4 servingsINGREDIENTS
- 4 boiled eggs
- 1/2 avocado
- 1-2 teaspoons seeded mustard, or to taste (our favourite is a chilli mustard but go with your preferred flavour profile)
- splash of lemon juice (to stop discolouration)
METHOD
- Bung in a blender or mash together with a fork. I prefer it a bit of texture so usually fork it.
This will last in the fridge for up to a week but it discolours so is best made in small batches.

Seven Things Weeks 34-39
Life, don't talk to me about life.
I got off track for a while dealing with work and home and stuff. There was just no headspace. Which reinforces my view that this is a game for the middle classes. So much stuff accumulated and the time to assess it. And while I am decluttering and I tag things "minimalism", I have a real issue with the whole minimalist movement as it is popularly portrayed. This is really about overconsumption and when I hear minimalist say things like - "if in doubt, get rid of it, you can always buy another one", or "if in doubt and you can buy it again for under $40 then get rid of it", I get very angry. Please steward what you have better rather than throwing things away or making it someone else's problem.
