    How long does gluten free pasta salad last in the fridge?

    You can keep your gluten free BLT pasta salad in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days. The lettuce will begin to wilt after that, so the salad needs to be consumed pretty quickly. Since there is mayonnaise in this salad you will want to make sure it isn't left out and gets refrigerated after serving.

    How do you keep gluten free pasta salad from getting hard?

    You will want to cook your gluten free pasta a little longer than al dente. You don't want the pasta to fall apart, but you want it a little less firm than if you are serving it hot. This will also help to prevent the pasta from soaking up all of the dressing.
