Low-FODMAP ‘Copycat’ Chick-Fil-A Sauce; Gluten-free, Vegan

Print Friendly Version

My low-FODMAP ‘Copycat’ Chick-Fil-A Sauce was inspired completely by food envy.

I was jealous of my family dipping their nuggets and fries galore, AND I wanted a simple, less expensive way to have this amazing flavor.  Now we can enjoy it all the time!

Who knew it would be this easy (5 minutes) and this tasty (SOOO GOOD)?

My low-FODMAP ‘Copycat’ Chick-Fil-A Sauce uses light corn syrup (or maple syrup) in place of honey, so it is a bit less yellow colored than the original version, and since there are no preservatives or fillers it is slightly thinner.

However, the taste is fresher, cleaner and much healthier than the packet variety.  You are going to LOVE it.

Low-FODMAP ‘Copycat’ Chick-Fil-A Sauce is going to become a staple at your house.  It goes perfectly with low-FODMAP Chicken Nuggets (natch), low-FODMAP Turkey Burgers and low-FODMAP Hamburgers.

Or use it to dip your favorite homemade or store bought french fries (like me).  YUM.
