What are my choices other than rice?
There are many.
What are my choices other than rice that is also low histamine?
Now we have to get creative.
Potatoes are well tolerated, and asparagus and squash are also low.
So, let’s just combine them all. Why not?
Ingredients
- 3 to 6 medium sized potatoes, washed and cubed
- 1 bunch asparagus washed and halved
- 1 medium sized spaghetti squash
- 1/2 cup water
Directions to make it
Step 1 Preheat oven 375 degrees
Step 2 Wash and cube potatoes
Step 3 Wash and cut asparagus
Step 4 Place potatoes and asparagus in shallow baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste.
Step 5 Bake for 30 minutes or until tender. Test with a fork. The fork should pierce vegetables easily.
Step 6 Cut squash in half
Step 7 drizzle lightly with olive oil
Step 8 Salt and pepper to taste
Step 9 Place face down in baking dish add water to the bottom of the pan (this allows the squash to steam without burning)
Step 10 Pierce skin with a fork
Bake for 45 minutes/ until tender pierce with a fork. If the fork pierces the skin easily with little or no resistance then it is ready.
Step 11 Once the vegetables are done cooking. Scoop the spaghetti squash out of the skin, and combine with the potatoes and asparagus in a large serving dish.
Tami’s Tips
Piercing the skin of the squash before roasting allows the steam to vent and cook the squash more evenly.
Vegetables are separated because they all have different cook times. Potatoes and asparagus cook times are closer, while squash is a tad longer.
Drizzle vegetables lightly with olive oil or a light vinagrette.
Garnish with parsley or chives adding an extra bit of flavor.
