Optimized for Easy Digestion & Full Enjoyment Lighten the Cream: Use half-and-half or evaporated milk instead of heavy cream. It keeps the sauce silky without being overly rich.

Butter Smartly: Swap out some butter for extra virgin olive oil—helps with heart health while maintaining that luscious texture.

Boost Gut Health: Add a pinch of turmeric or ginger to enhance digestion while subtly complementing the garlic butter sauce.

Reduce Dairy Intensity: If dairy is a concern, use plant-based cream (like cashew or coconut cream) for a gentler experience.

Lemon Zest Over Juice: Zest gives brightness without added acidity, which can sometimes be harsh for sensitive stomachs.

Low-Sodium Trick: Instead of excess salt, season with herbs like thyme or basil for a fuller, balanced taste.

Easy-to-Digest Pairings: Serve over quinoa or lightly sautéed zucchini noodles for a nourishing, stomach-friendly side.
