I don’t eat a lot of pasta these days for 3 reasons. One, gluten free pasta tends to be pretty expensive, two, it always seems to turn out a bit squishy when I cook it and three, I’d almost always choose rice over pasta anyway. Every so often though, I feel like a change and when I spotted an interesting sounding gluten free spaghetti by De Boles (made with rice, quinoa and amaranth) in Whole Foods recently, I thought I’d give gluten free spaghetti bolognese a try!
