Recipes for IBD

Food can be powerful medicine. These recipes are designed to support your ibd management — using real ingredients, real science, and real flavor.

Easy ⏱ 5 min prep · 30 min cook
Gentle Ginger Rice Congee
The universal healing food across Asian cultures — now with the science to back it up.
Why it works for IBD: Rice congee is ultra-low residue — nearly all nutrients are absorbed before reaching the inflamed colon. It reduces stool frequency and mucosal irritation during active flares. Ginger (zingiber officinale) reduces intestinal spasms, nausea, and bloating common in IBD through prostaglandin inhibition — without NSAID-related GI damage.
gut-soothinganti-inflammatoryeasy-to-digestlow-residueflare-safe
Ingredients
  • 1 cup white jasmine rice
  • 8 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
  • Low-sodium soy sauce to taste
  • White pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Rinse rice until water runs clear. Combine with broth in a large pot.
  2. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer.
  3. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 25–30 minutes until rice breaks down into a porridge-like consistency.
  4. Stir in ginger, garlic, and sesame oil in the last 5 minutes.
  5. Season lightly with soy sauce and white pepper.
  6. Serve in bowls garnished with scallions. Start with small portions if in a flare.

Bone Broth Steamed Chicken with Soft Carrots
The foundational gut-healing meal — simple, restorative, and easy on every part of your digestive tract.
Why it works for IBD: Bone broth contains gelatin, glycine, and glutamine — amino acids that directly support intestinal lining repair (the same nutrients used therapeutically in IBD research). Skinless chicken breast provides complete protein without the inflammatory saturated fat that can trigger bile acid diarrhea. Soft-cooked carrots add beta-carotene with minimal residue.
⚠️If taking azathioprine, 6-MP, or biologics: adequate protein intake is critical — these medications can reduce appetite. This dish helps meet protein needs without stressing the gut.
gut-soothinganti-inflammatorylow-residuehigh-proteinflare-safe
Ingredients
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into rounds
  • 2 cups bone broth (low-sodium)
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 slices fresh ginger
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Scallions for garnish
  • White pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Place chicken breasts in a medium pot with bone broth, water, ginger, and garlic.
  2. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat (do not boil vigorously).
  3. Add carrots to the pot.
  4. Cover and cook 20–25 minutes until chicken is cooked through (internal temp 165°F) and carrots are very soft.
  5. Remove chicken and slice. Arrange in a bowl with carrots.
  6. Ladle broth over the bowl, drizzle with sesame oil, and garnish with scallions.
  7. Start with the broth first if experiencing a flare — advance to solid food as tolerated.

Baked Salmon with Pureed Butternut Squash
Rich, golden, and loaded with the omega-3s that reduce intestinal inflammation at a molecular level.
Why it works for IBD: Omega-3s (EPA and DHA) directly shift prostaglandin production from pro-inflammatory PGE2 toward anti-inflammatory PGE3 in the intestinal wall — reducing mucosal inflammation. Butternut squash is a low-residue carbohydrate that doesn't irritate bowel tissue, making it safer during flares than high-fiber vegetables.
anti-inflammatorygut-soothingomega-3-richlow-residue
Ingredients
  • 2 salmon fillets (5–6oz each)
  • 1 small butternut squash (or 2 cups frozen puree)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp garlic powder (for salmon)
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • Salt and white pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. If using whole squash: halve it, brush with ½ tbsp olive oil, and roast face-down 25–30 minutes until tender.
  2. Meanwhile, season salmon with garlic powder, thyme, and pepper. Bake on a separate sheet for 18–20 minutes.
  3. Scoop out squash flesh and blend or mash with cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, and salt until smooth.
  4. Plate salmon over the butternut squash puree.
  5. Drizzle with remaining olive oil and serve immediately.

Banana Oat Porridge
A prebiotic-rich breakfast that feeds beneficial gut bacteria without irritating inflamed tissue.
Why it works for IBD: Ripe bananas contain prebiotic fructooligosaccharides that selectively feed Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium — the beneficial bacteria depleted in IBD. Unlike insoluble fiber, soluble oat fiber (beta-glucan) soothes the intestinal lining and regulates motility without triggering pain. Use smooth (not steel-cut) oats in active disease.
gut-soothingprebioticlow-residuehigh-soluble-fibergentle
Ingredients
  • ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats (not steel-cut during flares)
  • 1 cup water or low-sodium broth
  • 1 ripe banana, sliced
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • Optional: 1 tbsp creamy almond butter (if tolerated)
  • Optional: 1 tsp honey
Instructions
  1. Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan.
  2. Stir in oats and reduce heat to medium-low.
  3. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes until creamy and smooth.
  4. Stir in cinnamon.
  5. Pour into a bowl and top with sliced banana.
  6. Add almond butter and honey if tolerated. Start with plain oats during active flares and add toppings as tolerated.
