Low FODMAP Coconut Cream Spaghetti Squash

Roasted spaghetti squash gets scraped into long, tender strands and tossed in a creamy, golden sauce built from full-fat coconut milk, warmed through with fresh ginger and turmeric until it turns rich and slightly thickened. A splash of coconut aminos and a touch of apple cider vinegar give the sauce a savory-tangy depth that clings beautifully to every strand. The squash roasts until the edges caramelize just slightly, adding a little sweetness that balances the warm spice in the sauce. Finished with fresh parsley and a scatter of chives, it's a bright, comforting bowl that feels indulgent without being heavy. This one is an easy, satisfying dinner to keep on repeat for a Low FODMAP kitchen.
