Recipe Description

DESCRIPTION: I had to dig deep to come up with a fitting substitute for cocktail sauce that works within the autoimmune protocol, but I’m delighted to share it now! Step your appetizer game up a notch with this AIP shrimp cocktail with nomato sauce recipe.

It’s not the shrimp that poses a problem for your autoimmune diet, it’s the cocktail sauce. In Britain it’s known as Marie Rose sauce, and it’s typically a blend of ketchup and mayo.

In the U.S., mayonnaise is less common; horseradish is more popular. In this recipe, we’ll stay clear of mayo, horseradish (although it’s generally OK for AIP purposes), and ketchup.

Regular ketchup blends tomatoes, a member of the nightshade family that’s unkind to many with autoimmune conditions, and sugar. My nomato ketchup is sugar-free and easy on your digestion.

Rather, it’s a delicious blend of beet and carrot sauce. If you’re cooking for others, have fun trying to get them to guess the ingredients!

Recipe Directions

  1. Combine the coconut cream and AIP Nomato Ketchup. Season with salt. Add in the shrimp and mix well to coat.
  2. Place shredded lettuce in a cocktail glass or bowl and add the shrimp on top. Give a generous squeeze of lemon over the shrimp.
  3. Top with parsley and garnish with the avocado.
