4 servings
For the squash
- 1 medium spaghetti squash (about 3 lb)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- ¼ tsp salt
For the sauce
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
Ingredient noteFresh ginger is generally considered bladder-friendly, and the small amount in this recipe (~1/4 tsp per serving) is likely fine for many people with interstitial cystitis. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
Ingredient noteTurmeric can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/8 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid turmeric, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
