Gluten Free Ravioli
This Gluten Free Ravioli from A Stray Kitchen has a subtle flavor that can be paired with any sort of filling or sauce. As Alycia notes, the dough is hearty enough to withstand freezing once it’s cooked, so this dish makes for a great meal prep item. Take a full Sunday, make a big batch (double or triple the recipe) then freeze into portions for use in the future. The ravioli is made with Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 Gluten Free Flour Blend, three eggs, xanthan gum and cold water and is filled with ground turkey Italian sausage, minced yellow onion, garlic, ricotta cheese, salt, pepper and oil. There’s a delightful optional sauce of grated parmesan cheese, basil leaves and onion oil—though you can also feel free to use an alternate oil if you don’t have the onion oil on hand. These ravioli pair nicely with an arugula salad or sautéed greens.
Gluten Free Spinach Pasta
Gluten Free Spinach Pasta, otherwise known as Pasta Verde, is a wonderful way to get in those greens! This recipe from Good For You Gluten Free calls for just four ingredients: raw spinach, Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 Gluten Free Baking Flour, eggs and a dash of kosher salt. The result is a beautiful green-hued noodle fit for any meal or gathering. Not only is this pasta fun to look at when it’s set out on the lunch or dinner table, but it’s packed with the added vitamins and nutrition of one of our favorite leafy greens. To let the color shine, simply toss this pasta with olive oil and a bit of salt (maybe even a sprinkle of parmesan and some sliced cherry tomatoes). This pairs well with roasted chicken or salmon thrown on the barbecue in the summertime.
Gluten Free Spaetzle
Spaetzle is a hearty German noodle that’s typically made as a cold weather comfort food. This recipe for Gluten Free Spaetzle comes to us from Amanda of Craft Cooking Mama and it’s wonderful! All you need to see these festive noodles come to life is our Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour, salt, eggs, milk and a sprinkle of nutmeg for spice. Once you’ve finished cooking it, the spaetzle can be tossed or drizzled with butter (or brown butter) and served with your sauce of choice. As the recipe notes, opt out of pan frying it with butter, as the noodles tend to clump up when cooked this way. In the cooler months, serve this dish with a vegetable or beef stew for a tasty meal.
Gluten Free Mac and Cheese
At Bob’s Red Mill, we love mac and cheese, and we especially love this version of Gluten Free Mac and Cheese from Kula Mama. It’s made with gluten free pasta (or spiralized sweet potatoes if you’re avoiding grains), grass-fed butter, milk, raw grass-fed cheddar cheese and Bob’s Red Mill All Purpose Baking Flour. If you’d like to add some more protein to the dish, you can always go for chicken apple sausage, chopped bacon, or even lobster. However you decide to serve this gluten free pasta wonder, rest assured that it will be delicious.
Gluten Free Bow Tie Noodles
These Gluten Free Bow Tie Noodles from Clean Eating Mag are an amazing blend of gluten free flours and seeds. There aren’t any gums or fillers in this recipe, so the pasta is slightly more delicate than some others you might be used to. It’s a unique blend of flax meal, ground chia seeds, brown rice flour, chickpea flour, Bob’s Red Mill Potato Flour, tapioca flour, eggs and olive oil. You can use a pasta machine when flattening the dough, then use your fingers to lightly press it into bow tie shapes. Alternatively, you can also leave the dough in sheets and use it as a base for a fresh gluten free lasagna.
When it comes to gluten free pasta recipes, the options are plentiful. From ravioli to bow tie noodles, to traditional pasta, there’s something here for the pasta enthusiast in us all!
