Low histamine nomato ketchup

Low histamine turkey meatballs, gf

1

Make turkey meatballs, or defrost them if you already have some frozen.

Oven: 350°F for 10-15 min or until warmed all the way through.

Microwave: On a plate with a napkin, for 1-2 min.

2

Cook rice according to package instructions. Or, if you have some in your freezer, defrost in the microwave for 3 minutes.

3

Wash broccoli and pepper, then chop them and the onion into bite size pieces.

4

Warm olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the broccoli and saute for 2-3 minutes. Then add the onion and pepper. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Saute for another 2-4 minutes, until tender. Cover and set aside.

5

While the veggies are cooking, prepare the sauce. Put low histamine nomato ketchup and grape jelly into a small saucepan and simmer for 2-3 minutes over medium-low heat. Whisk often until well combined. The sauce should be smooth.

Or combine ketchup and grape jelly into a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 sec, whisk, and microwave for another 30 sec.

This sauce is freezer friendly.

6

In your bowl layer rice, meatballs and veggies. Then drizzle the sweet & sour sauce over the top. Enjoy!

I love this sweet & sour sauce! It's like eating a semblance of Chinese food again, which is a difficult thing to do when you avoid tomatoes and soy. 

I also love how easy it can be. Because I bake in big batches and freeze a lot of foods, I almost always have frozen pre-cooked turkey meatballs, nomato ketchup, and cooked rice on hand. Then I just have to warm them all up & quickly chop up any veggies I have in the fridge and voila! In under 30 minutes, a delicious dinner.

    I’m excited to try this! I have to avoid sweet and sour due to my pineapple allergy, so this is perfect!

    Is ground turkey safe?

      According to the SIGHI list, which I follow, it lists turkey as a level 0, so I assume that includes ground turkey. However MastCell 360 recommends grinding your own meat at home, which I am not willing to do.

      My daughter with histamine intolerance tolerates ground meats just fine, but as with most things related to histamine intolerance, it depends on the individual. If you’ve never tried it before I would only try a very small amount with ground turkey that is as fresh as possible.
