Low Histamine Success Starts with a Low Histamine Meal Prep

🥣When I plan what I’m going to meal prep, I usually pick a:

✅Protein

✅Simple carbohydrate (white rice) and/or a complex carbohydrate (mashed sweet potatoes)

✅Fresh/Cooked veggies

✅Legumes I can use for a few meal ideas (Instant Pot black beans)

✅A sauce. ALWAYS a sauce.😉

🍮You can prep some dessert foods as well: a sauce to dip fresh fruit in, or some frozen treats.

💗I’ve rounded up my fave meal prep foods, from sofrito rice and plantain chips to @sunbutter caramel and tahini coco caramels. Hope this is helpful! I’ll be adding to this list regularly. DM me if you have any questions or suggestions on what foods you’d like to see added to this list

🍝FYI, for pasta dishes you can freeze the pasta or make it fresh. GF brown rice pasta gets a little gummier when frozen than cassava flour. Cook it for 8 minutes, and add salt when you cook it (so pasta doesn’t stick together).

LOW HISTAMINE FOODS LISTS

BOOKS

 

  • The 4-Phase Histamine Reset Plan” by Dr. Becky Campbell gives you a crash course in histamine intolerance. **Some of the recipes contain ingredients that are high in histamine, so I avoid those recipes.**

 

 

**GF/DF/LOW-HISTAMINE (I followed mastcell360 low histamine foods list very strictly initially, then added some foods from the SIGHI list as I began to tolerate more foods, all under the care of a dietitian. A low histamine diet is restrictive and not meant to be followed long-term, as nutrient deficiencies may develop.)**
