Notes

If salicylates are better tolerated you can replace swede with CARROTS, or do half and half. If moderate MSG/glutamate tolerated you can add 1 cup of frozen PEAS a few minutes before serving. For Low fodmap leave out garlic or swap to garlic infused oil (home made with suitable oil for salicylate sensitivity)
