This PCOS-friendly recipe uses spaghetti squash, a low GI food, instead of pasta to create a delicious and satisfying meal. The creamy Alfredo sauce is made with heavy cream and Parmesan cheese, which are both low in carbs and high in fat, making this recipe perfect for a keto diet. The chicken provides a good source of protein. Grocery list: spaghetti squash, chicken breasts, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic, olive oil, fresh parsley.
