A gluten-free diet may seem like an impossible lifestyle change if you’re someone who loves pasta.
But in the world of healthy eating, nothing is impossible!
If you’re looking for gluten-free pasta substitutes for your keto recipes, you’ve come to the right place.
Here are fantastic pasta options that are low on carbs and high in nutrients; all excellent alternatives to traditional, wheat flour-based pasta that you can use to make keto pasta:
Brown rice is a very popular gluten-free pasta variety as it has a mild flavor and a chewy texture, which is great for making traditional pasta dishes.
Brown rice is rich in micronutrients such as manganese, selenium, and magnesium. It is also a great source of fiber, providing 3 grams of fiber per cup. It also boosts antioxidants in the blood, which can prevent chronic conditions including diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.
Natural Heaven Rice makes delicious pasta when used well!
Hearts of palm is a very nutrient-rich, low-fat vegetable that promotes a healthy heart and gut. Full of vitamins, minerals, iron, and zinc, it’s the ideal gluten-free pasta substitute.
Natural Heaven Pasta is a fantastic option if you want to integrate hearts of palm pasta or hearts of palm noodles into your diet.
Hearts of palm helps reduce morning sickness and boosts tissue repair and overall health.
If you’re a spaghetti or noodle-lover looking to substitute your usual with something healthier, onion noodles are the answer.
Onions contain a third of the carbs in regular pasta, and they are rich in fiber, potassium, folate, phosphorus, and vitamin C and B6. They are also rich in flavonoid antioxidants that help lower blood pressure and thus improve heart health.
Just peel and divide onions into 0.5cm slices, separating each ring. Then place the onions in a large roasting pan and drizzle them with oil. Season them with salt and pepper, and roast for 30 minutes, or until they start turning brown. Stir the onions about halfway through.
Once the noodles are cooked, just add your favorite sauce and garnish!
The benefits of multigrain pasta are undeniable—they are made with a blend of many grains, all of which benefit the body in different ways. This includes corn, buckwheat, quinoa, rice, and amaranth.
Multi-grain pasta is a much healthier alternative to traditional pasta, and it has the benefit of having a remarkably similar texture and taste. This means you don’t have to shift your pasta recipe drastically!
Seaweed is a straightforward, healthy, and low-carb pasta substitute. It’s relatively unprocessed—seaweed is just harvested, rinsed, and dried.
This healthy alternative is low in carbs and calories, and very rich in minerals. It’s a great source of magnesium, folate, calcium, iron, and vitamin K. Some varieties are also high in iodine.
Additionally, seaweed averages around 30% of the carb content of wheat pasta.
Going gluten-free can seem daunting, whether due to celiac disease, gluten sensitivity, or simply a personal preference. Nobody wants to give up their favorite pasta dishes, but you don’t want to sacrifice your health either, right?
