Melmac 2012-10-07T02:29:38Z 2012-10-08T19:50:50Z <p>About a month ago I made this cauliflower bacon soup recipe, where I steam a small head of cauliflower, stick it in the blender with coconut milk and chicken broth, and add in bacon and sausage. I'd had it a few times before and I loved the recipe, totally paleo too. But that one time I ate a lot of the soup, and I got really bad bloating, I checked and found that I'd added an inch to my waistline. Was that caused by the steamed cauliflower, eating too much of it, or a combination? I haven't touched this soup since. Eugh, I skipped dinner that night because my stomach still hurt >.&lt; Does anyone else get bloating from steamed cauliflower?</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/154098/does-too-much-steamed-cauliflower-cause-bloating/154103#154103 Answer by Renee for Does too much steamed cauliflower cause bloating?

Amber 2012-10-07T05:46:48Z 2012-10-07T05:46:48Z <p>They cause problems for me. I've found most veggies do. I now do FODMAPS. Has helped me so much especially in the vegetable department. I stick to leafy greens, kale, spinach, lettuce, collard greens, bean sprouts, occasional green beans and feel great. I ALWAYS got bloated after having broccoli, brussel sprouts, cauli, or other veggies of that nature. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/154098/does-too-much-steamed-cauliflower-cause-bloating/154132#154132 Answer by norwegian girl for Does too much steamed cauliflower cause bloating? norwegian girl 2012-10-07T09:23:01Z 2012-10-08T19:50:50Z <p>Definitely.
