Low FODMAP Crockpot Steak & Peppers

I have come across many low FODMAP recipes over the past few years and one of the most important aspects for me is finding a recipe that requires minimal work. Don’t get me wrong, I certainly don’t mind putting in the effort to cook, especially when it’s for a lot of people. However, on the days when my symptoms are at its worst I rather take it easy as much as possible. The great thing about this recipe is that it involves very little effort, and it tastes great!

Here is my own rendition of slow-cooked steak and peppers. For sides, I have made jasmine rice and sautéed asparagus. However, feel free to create your own sides. Enjoy!
