There are so many different FODMAP shrimp recipes and baked coconut shrimp is one of my favorites!
Who knew baked coconut shrimp could be THIS good! I promise no one will miss the heavily fried version you find at most restaurants. Plus how great is it to eat dinner and not feel heavy and sluggish afterwards? I absolutely hate that feeling but also want to be able to eat delicious foods.
This recipe uses many bowls but once you set up the ingredients, the rest is a breeze. This would be perfect for an appetizer or even a main meal as it’s super quick and easy to make. I have also used this for baked coconut chicken and baked coconut cod. It’s a great basic template to use.

Sounds so good, but coconut hits me hard...even in the recommended amounts...
Some people don't tolerate coconut, I would just not use the coconut flakes and just do it without. It will still be yummy!
My boyfriend would love these!
YAY! It's a favorite of my hubby's!
