Who doesn’t love applesauce? Served hot or cold, it’s a great, comforting snack. Cooking it fills the kitchen with wonderful, mouth-watering scents, and it can be as smooth or chunky as you like it. Pretty much any berry or stone fruit can be added (apricots? pears? cranberries? yum!), but this Blueberry Applesauce is one of my favorites because of the rich blue color. Add ginger, lemon zest, or cinnamon according to your preferences and enjoy!
Looking for Low-FODMAP Recipes?
The low-FODMAP diet is often prescribed for people with IBS or Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), and there’s a huge overlap of that demographic with people with autoimmune disease. My e-book 28 Days of Low-FODMAP AIP combines both IBS- and autoimmune-friendly diets in a 28-day meal plan designed to jump start and simplify this often-challenging diet change. Just you wait: The meal plan includes 50 exclusive low-FODMAP recipes you won’t find on my website or anywhere else, with dishes like Chicken Vindalo, Jambalaya, and crispy, crunchy Tostones. You’ll be amazed at the variety of flavors still available to you! The ebook is available as a digital download for $9.99.

Do you run this through a Foley food mill to get the skins off the apples and blueberries? Sounds yummy!
No, I leave the skins in the mix. They’re full of nutrients and fiber!
