I have never been a big fan of salads. But if there is pasta in the salad, I’m in! This Low FODMAP Italian Pasta Salad checks all my marks of what a perfect salad should be! It’s been my go-to super simple dinner choice through the entire summer. However, only recently I feel that I have perfected the recipe so that I can share it with you!

Low FODMAP Italian Pasta Salad Recipe

This is probably my favorite salad. It is super simple and easy to make yet very flavorful and delicious. The cherry on the top, in this case, is the dressing, which takes this salad on a whole new level. It makes it super refreshing and adds even more flavor and depth.

The word delicious doesn’t even do justice to describing how yummy this salad is. You need to try it to understand what I’m talking about and why I’ve been totally obsessed with it for the entire summer.

It’s one of the easiest salads. It literally takes 30min to make. You don’t need any special appliances and it only uses simple and easily accessible ingredients.

How to make this salad vegan?

You can replace the salami for chickpeas (customize portion size to make it low FODMAP), and instead of mozzarella use a vegan version or another vegan cheese (like vegan feta cheese)

*Make-Ahead Tip:

You can keep this salad in the fridge for up to 3 days. I’d say that for me it tastes better the next day when the flavor of the dressing has marinated all the ingredients. A little tip if you plan on making a batch and are planning on having it for a few days. Don’t over boil your pasta. Gluten-free pasta can be quite fragile and if you over boil it can become soggy quickly.

*FODMAP Tip:

*Make Sure that you use a salami that doesn’t contain onions, garlic or dehydrated vegetables.

*If you are using store-bought garlic-infused olive oil, make sure there are no floating bits of garlic in it. You can also make Garlic Infused olive oil at home by frying garlic cloves in the olive oil until they are golden and fragrant. Then remove them from the oil and continue cooking your meal.

*Make sure there is no garlic or onion in the Italian herb mix.

*As a general rule always read the labels of the ingredients that you use as there can be sneaky FODMAP’s in any product. To educate yourself of which foods are high in FODMAP’s I’d strongly recommend downloading Monash Unversity FODMAP Diet App
