If youre like me, you LOVE pasta.

First of all, its so versatile. You can dress it up with so many different sauces and flavors whether you prefer it with a cheese sauce, tomato sauce, a white sauce, or pesto.

And then there are pasta saladswith even more options!

Sadly, however, pasta isnt always the best choice if youre trying to eat a low-carb diet. And if you have a gluten sensitivity, eating pasta gets a whole lot more difficult, too.

(I mean, I know there are gluten-free pastas out there but why are gluten-free foods so much more expensive? And it can be difficult to find one thats just the right flavor and texture.)

Thats one of the reasons I love quinoa.

It has a similar texture isnt overwhelming in flavor and is somehow a great substitution for pasta.

Plus, its gluten-free and packs a LOT more protein and other nutrients than pasta does!

So if you’ve been missing your pasta… or thinking you should cut back on your pasta intake…

(Is eating pasta 5 times a week too much? Asking for a friend. 😉 )

Quinoa is a great substitute! And if you’ve never tried quinoa before… you’re going to live it.

Kind of like pasta, you can dress up quinoa in many different ways and with many different flavors. This recipe is a crowd pleaser!
