Cauliflower rice (low histamine, lectin, oxalate and carbohydrate)

When packed with flavour, such as garlic and fresh coriander, I find cauliflower rice to be a satisfying alternative to rice and it’s a good way to sneak in some extra vegetables.

This recipe is low histamine, lectin, oxalate and carbohydrate.

The low histamine diet

Histamine is naturally occurring and contributes to health however, some people will benefit from minimising their histamine intake through food to help address certain conditions.
