Following a low-histamine, high-protein diet can feel limiting, but it doesn’t have to be boring. Over time, I’ve found a few go-to snacks that are easy to prepare and gentle on the body, AND genuinely satisfying.
🥚 1. Hard-Boiled Eggs with Olive Oil & Sea Salt - Simple, portable, and packed with protein—plus a drizzle of olive oil makes them extra tasty.
🫛 2. Cooked Lentils with Fresh Herbs - Lentils are low in histamine when freshly made. Add parsley, lemon zest, and olive oil for a quick savory snack.
🐟 3. Sardine-Free “Tuna” Salad - Mash cooked chicken with celery, cucumber, and olive oil or low-histamine mayo. Serve in lettuce cups or on rice waffles.
🥥 4. Coconut Yogurt with Hemp Seeds - Unsweetened coconut yogurt gives you creaminess without dairy, and hemp seeds add protein + crunch.
🍗 5. Homemade Turkey or Chicken Strips - Bake your own lean strips with herbs—store-bought jerky is often high in histamines, so fresh is best.
Eating this way takes a bit more preparation, but when your snacks taste good and support your health, it’s 100% worth it.
