This low FODMAP chopped spring roll noodle salad has all the best bits of a spring roll but only takes a fraction of the time to make. We love how the crisp salad ingredients combine with the tender noodles and super creamy peanut dressing to make a delicious meal.

  1. Cook the rice noodles according to packet directions, then drain, rinse under cold water and drain again. Place to one side for later.
  2. Wash and shred the lettuce, dice the green bell pepper/capsicum, peel and dice the carrot, shred the cabbage, peel and slice the cucumber into bite-sized pieces, and finely chop the mint. Place the salad ingredients in a large bowl.
  3. Make the peanut dressing. Whisk together the peanut butter, maple syrup, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce and water (or you can blitz it in a blender). Add more water as needed to thin the dressing.
  4. If the noodles are super long, cut them in half using a clean pair of scissors.
  5. Place the noodles in the salad bowl and toss to combine. Then drizzle over the peanut dressing and serve. Enjoy!
  6. Meal prep option: This salad will keep for 3 days in the fridge. We’d recommend keeping the dressing on the side until you are ready to serve.

Buying Tips

Make sure you use pure maple syrup (low FODMAP) not maple flavoured syrup (potentially high FODMAP).

Check the peanut butter does not contain high FODMAP ingredients like honey, high fructose corn syrup, inulin (chicory root), or agave syrup.

The amount of wheat in regular soy sauce is low FODMAP, however if you are feeling concerned you can buy gluten free soy sauce (Tamari).

Gluten Free Tips

Check the peanut butter is gluten free.

If you are highly sensitive to gluten, check all packaged products, processed meat (like bacon), nuts, seeds and dried fruit do not contain a warning for trace gluten. If you are just on the low FODMAP diet you do not need to worry about this.
