Gluten Free Pasta Primavera
This week I am sharing a recipe for Gluten Free Pasta Primavera. "Primavera" which means "Spring" is a traditional Italian dish. The entire family loves this fresh & colorful main course that contains lots of fresh vegetables including: cherry tomatoes, asparagus, sweet peas, peppers, and spinach, which is topped with fresh basil leaves and parmesean cheese.

This looks so colorful and spring-like! I do love spring and summer for all the fresh foods. I love grilling vegetables and I'm actually linking up some of my favorite campground foods with yall this week! Thank you for hosting the link up Angela!
Pasta primavera is my fave the more veggie the better
I was just saying I needed a recipe to use up the last of some chicken stock! This looks so good. We're right in the middle of June Gloom, so it's chilly and grey. All I want is something comforting like this!
The pasta looks so delicious! I almost have all the ingredients at home to make it, but I'll pin it for now! Love how color it is!
I need to find my veggie mix to make a primavera.
Looks delicious!! Thanks for hosting the party - and Thanks for sharing on the What's for Dinner link up!
This looks so delicious! I have never made this, but it is one of my favorite pasta dishes. I love anything with veggies! You made it look so easy to make, so I can't wait to try this. Thanks for sharing!
Yay! Love that this is gluten free- looks so yummy!
I love pasta primavera and your variation sounds yummy! We don't eat gluten free, so I'd just make it with regular pasta.
This pasta looks super tasty! I have no gluten problem but my niece does and she looooooooooove pasta, so this is perfect for her :)
This looks lovely, something I have always meant to try. Love your variation
That looks really good. I love pasta primavera! I have no problems with gluten but I will occasionally use the gluten-free version. And it looks easy to make vegan!
Spaghetti squash with this = ON POINT! I would also swap in nutritional yeast for the cheese. Experimented with it over the weekend and I was very pleasantly surprised!
Oh man, I wish I had a big race coming up just so I could load up on piles of this! Looks awesome!
love all things pasta..and this looks color and light :)
Whoa, this looks so good! What a great, healthy twist on a classic pasta dish :)
my hubby would love this dish. the last gluten free pasta we bought was just so so. i need to try a different kind.
I've tried a lot of gluten free pastas but I've never seen this brand.
This looks delicious! Thanks for linking up to #TastyTuesdays x
Looks so bright and good, Angela! Something I would really love to try!
Angela - this is my kind of pasta salad - it's so perfect for Summer BBQs!
Ok, I love the idea of the fresh veggies and gluten free pasta, and I also love all the great ideas in the blog hop. It's a win win!! :-)
Pasta Primavera is a favorite at our house too, your gluten free version looks wonderful, I don't think I've ever met a spring veggie that I didn't love!
This looks so delicious! Pasta primavera is one of my favorite, favorite things. I love how many vegetables you used in this one!
I LOVE all of the wonderful veggies in your pasta. My favorite pasta primavera is one packed like the kitchen sink!
This pasta dish has my name written all over it!
