Gluten Free Green Goddess Pasta Salad

This Gluten Free Green Goddess Pasta Salad is one of those recipes that looks impressive but comes together in just 20 minutes and I love making it when asparagus and peas are at their best in spring and early summer. Gluten free pasta is tossed with a simple and creamy green goddess dressing made from pesto and mayonnaise then mixed with sweet peas, tender sauteed asparagus, green onions, and fresh mozzarella pearls for the most beautiful and satisfying cold pasta salad.

Every bite is creamy, herby, and completely delicious.

This salad is perfect for summer barbecues, potlucks, and meal prep because it stores in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days and honestly gets better as it sits. Y

ou can serve it immediately at room temperature or chill it for an hour first for a cold pasta salad. Either way it is one of the most crowd pleasing gluten free side dishes I make all summer long.

If you are looking for more summer salad options try my Gluten Free BLT Pasta Salad, my Gluten Free Pesto Pasta Salad, my Easy Gluten Free Bow Tie Pasta Salad, or my Easy Gluten Free Macaroni Salad.

If you made this Gluten Free Green Goddess Pasta Salad I would love to hear what you thought! Please leave a star rating and a comment below. This is one of my favorite easy spring and summer side dish recipes and I hope it becomes one of yours too!

Storage

Store this gluten free green goddess pasta salad in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Because this salad contains mayonnaise do not leave it out at room temperature for more than 2 hours. If the salad thickens in the refrigerator add a small drizzle of olive oil and stir before serving. This salad is not recommended for freezing as the mayonnaise dressing and fresh vegetables do not hold up well to freezing and thawing.

Top Tip

Make this pasta salad the night before you plan to serve it for the best flavor. The pesto and mayonnaise dressing soaks into the pasta overnight and the flavors deepen and meld together beautifully. If the salad looks a little thick after sitting in the refrigerator just add a small drizzle of olive oil and stir to loosen it back up before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is green goddess dressing made of?

This dressing combines pesto, mayonnaise, salt and pepper for a super simple green goddess dressing recipe. To make this salad really quick I like to purchase the pesto, but you could also use my Gluten Free Homemade Walnut Pesto in this recipe.

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

You can keep your gluten free green goddess pasta salad in a sealed container in the fridge for 3-5 days. Since there is mayonnaise in this salad you will want to make sure it isn't left out and gets refrigerated after serving.

Can I make this green goddess pasta salad ahead of time?

Yes and I actually recommend it! This cold pasta salad gets even more flavorful as it sits in the refrigerator because the pesto and mayonnaise dressing soaks into the pasta and the flavors deepen overnight. Make it the night before you plan to serve it for the best possible result. Give it a good stir before serving and add a small drizzle of olive oil if it has thickened up.

Can I add protein to this green goddess pasta salad?

Absolutely! Grilled chicken, rotisserie chicken, or shrimp are all delicious additions that make this pasta salad a complete meal. Simply add your cooked protein of choice when you combine the other ingredients and toss with the dressing. Mozzarella already adds some protein but adding chicken makes this a hearty and satisfying main dish.

What gluten free pasta works best in this recipe?

I use Jovial Gluten Free Caserecce Pasta in this recipe because the shape holds up beautifully in cold pasta salads without getting mushy and has a great texture that is very close to traditional pasta. Make sure you rinse the pasta in cold water after cooking and drain it well before adding the other ingredients to stop the cooking process and prevent clumping.

How do you make an orange vanilla smoothie?

It is so easy to make an orange vanilla smoothie (also known as an orange creamsicle). Simply add the greek yogurt, milk, cream, orange juice concentrate, vanilla extract, maple syrup and ice cubes to your blend and blend until smooth.

You can use whatever type of milk you have. I used almond milk, but you could easily use dairy milk or another non dairy milk you have. It is important for this to taste like a creamsicle that you use the heavy whipping cream though.

Oven Baked Marinated Steak Kabobs

This easy recipe for oven baked marinated steak kabobs makes a quick dinner that can be prepped ahead. I like to use beef steak and lots of veggies on each skewer. I marinade the steak at least two hours and then alternate steak and vegetables on each kebab.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I'm not a big fan of standing at the grill. It's usually hot outside, there may be bugs and my hair ends up smelling like smoke. So, instead I like to make kabobs in the oven. It's so easy and allows me to make yummy skewers of meat and veggies all year long.

Ingredients

Instructions

Cut the beef steak into one inch cubes.

In a sealed container or a gallon freezer bag add the olive oil, coconut aminos, worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Add the beef steak cubes to this mixture.

Shake to coat all of the steak pieces. Store in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. I love to leave the steak in the marinade overnight for lots of flavor.

Soak the wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes.

While the skewers are soaking, cut the sweet onion, red onion and bell peppers into one inch chunks.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Once the steak has marinated and the skewers have been soaked you are ready to assemble the kabobs. Add a layer of steak and alternating layers of vegetables until you've used all of the ingredients. Lay them on an unlined baking sheet.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, turning the skewers every 10 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you make steak kabobs in the oven?

Yes! It's so simple and it saves you from standing over a hot grill. Be sure to soak your wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes. Then using whatever meat and vegetable combination you like add them to the skewers.
Use a baking sheet to lay the skewers on and bake them. If you want a bit of char you can broil the kabobs, but watch them closely so they don't get too dark.

How long do you cook kabobs in the oven?

I like to cook them in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Be sure to turn them every 10 minutes so they cook evenly. If they look too dry spray a bit of olive oil on them and finish baking.
