Gluten Free Pasta Guide

2/26/2014

A pasta lover's dream!

A complete guide to all types of gluten free pastas!

While it's awesome to have SO many options at the grocery store, it can also be overwhelming. Rice noodles, corn noodles, potato noodles...the possibilities seem to be endless, and all you really want to know is what will work best with your marinara sauce!

This article was written by Giliah Librach, a regular contributor to the blog, CeliAct that I subscribe to! (which you should too, it's free!)
So here it is:
Gluten Free Pasta Guide

These are Giliah's opinions, but I have to agree with most of what she's saying!
After all, I like her, have dabbled in trying almost all varieties out there...

My favorite types of gluten free pastas are:

Corn
Corn/Potato Blend
Quinoa
Quinoa Blend
Rice Noodles (a new find in the Asian section of my grocery store, so yummy!)

I do NOT like brown rice pasta...I don't like brown rice, so, that would make sense!
What can I say, I'm picky :)

I haven't had much luck finding a gf pasta that I like. I see a few that I haven't tried on your list. Thanks!

Jill, it took me a while, BUT I love any corn based pasta or quinoa blend! I actually don't really eat pasta too much, I opt for zoodles, spaghetti squash or my new find, rice noodles! Happy Hunting!

Does spaghetti squash count? Actually I've been a vermicelli (one type of rice noodle) fan since before I even realized it was healthier. Thanks for sharing article.

Erik, I actually don't really even EAT a lot of pasta, but this guide was too good to pass up sharing with my readers.

I only eat it on the rare occasion or if I'm out to dinner...

BUT I LOVE SPAGHETTI SQUASH, of course it counts. My favorite type of "noodle" would have to be zoodles, and I JUST found out about vermicelli and I am iN LOVE! It's healthier? Hm, IM ALL ABOUT THAT :) thanks for stopping by <3

Ha healthy is relative -- that is why I chose "healthier". I imagine it is too processed to be considered healthy. But being that its primary ingredient is rice it is a carb I would recommend to an athlete that trains.

You're right, healthy is so relative! Well I say it's better than eating regular pasta, it's all about the swapportunities!

Thanks for this! You know it was a question of mine. I've since decided that I shouldn't do any sort of "replacements" because I really need to get my body fat % down. I type this as I just finished eating a gluten free english muffin. It's a treat. And, oh, it's made with brown rice. :)

Carla, glad I could be helpful :)

WELL - there's TONS of veggie noodle alternatives to try out and lots of great gluten free carbs such as quinoa, amaranth, brown rice, jasmine rice/basmatic rice/wild rice, etc. that are not "replacements"!

I'm not sure as to how decreasing body fat works, but do what's best for you :)

AND OF COURSE, THERE'S ALWAYS ROOM TO TREAT YOURSELF <3
