Hey Jill! I regularly omit cow cream and use coconut milk from the can, or homemade cashew milk, and I've also used canned coconut cream. They all work great to substitute because either way it's about as creamy as cow cream. I'm about to do the same for this recipe! Hopefully my comment is helpful :)

Hi Nina, I was thinking of trying this recipe using coconut milk as well. After taking the can of coconut milk out of the refrigerator, did you discard the liquid and only use the solid cream part in the can?

Also, did you use the parmesan cheese in this recipe or skip it?

Thanks

Wow! This was delicious! My daughter asked if I'd make it for Christmas. It was so satisfying and delicious. I made it as suggested with spaghetti squash and the fresh lettuce salad and it was fantastic together. We had never had spaghetti squash as a substitute for pasta and I worried it was too plain without seasoning, but covered with the creamy sauce was incredible.

love this one. I substitute the heavy cream with Coconut milk that was kept in the fridge for 12 hours.
