Gluten Free Italian Pasta Salad

This Gluten Free Italian Pasta Salad is a light and healthy version of Joanna Gaines’ pasta salad in the second Magnolia cookbook. It’s refreshing, delicious, and simple to make!

Last week, I was in California visiting my family. When together, my mom and I love cooking new recipes. After visiting a delicious Italian restaurant, I vowed to try cooking more Italian recipes. After all, we are both Italian!

Funny story: last Christmas, my mom and I both gifted each other the Magnolia cookbook, which is where I found Joanna Gaines’ pasta salad recipe. Last week, we decided to give it a try. But, we made a few tweaks to create a gluten free, light, and healthy version. For the original version, check out “The Magnolia Table: Vo. 2″ by Joanna Gaines. I promise, you won’t regret it!

Gluten Free Italian Pasta Salad

Health Benefits of Italian Pasta Salad

Pasta salad isn’t typically considered “healthy,” but this isn’t any ordinary pasta salad! It’s actually packed with many, health-promoting ingredients, like artichoke hearts, kalamata olives, olive oil, green onion, and more. This recipe is also easy to makes swaps and substitutions. See the recipe directions below for recommendations! 

Green Onion

To be honest, I rarely cook with or eat green onion. And, I’m not sure why because I love it! Green onions are low calorie, but rich in vitamins A and K, as well as antioxidants. And, for being such a small vegetable, they provide a ton of flavor!

Tomatoes 

Tomatoes are key to rich, delicious Italian cooking. I recommend always opting for homegrown or organic tomatoes. Not only do they taste best, but conventional tomatoes are on the “Dirty Dozen list.” Meaning, they’re often high in residual pesticides. Nutritionally, tomatoes are rich in multiple vitamins and minerals, including vitamins B and C. They also content high content of water, fiber, and antioxidants, like lycopene. 

Artichokes

Artichokes are easily one of my favorite vegetables. They contain high amounts of antioxidants to fight inflammation and promote healthy detox function. They also have a healthy dose of fiber to regulate bowl movements and stabilize blood sugar.

Kalamata Olives

I love the rich, unique taste of Kalamata olives, but if you’re not a fan, opt for black or green olives instead. Olives, in general, provide essential fatty acids which are necessary for optimal health. These fatty acids not only carry plenty of vitamins and minerals, but are known to promote heart health, provide energy, and protect against disease. 

Olive Oil

Olive oil has been a well-known superfood for years. But, recent studies are showing that extra virgin olive oil has significant positive impacts on the gut microbiome. Dr Sarah Ballantyne wrote an awesome post all about the health benefits of olive oil, which you can read here: “Olive Oil Redemption.”

Coming back atcha with the nourishing food swaps! Coming back atcha with the nourishing food swaps! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We've gotten so backwards with our eating habits and diets, that most of us would consider nourishing foods to be "unhealthy!"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But, I'm here to bust these common food myths and get you on the road to a nourished body 👇🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today's focus: cooking oils! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Next time you load up on cooking oils, you can walk right past the canola oil, sunflower oil, margarine, and olive oil. These oils are highly unstable, meaning they turn toxic at lower cooking temps. And you never want to cook with them! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Instead, opt for STABLE cooking oils, like coconut oil, ghee, grass-fed butter, or avocado oil! Not only do these cooking fats stay stable at higher cooking temps, but they also provide essential fat-soluble vitamins, energize your mind and body, and make your food taste so much better! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't believe me? Just try it for yourself and let me know how you feel + how much better your food tastes! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Should you drink coffee or skip it?!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
IMO, coffee has unfairly gained a bad rap over the last couple years. Sure, it shouldn't be used as a crutch for energy, but it definitely doesn’t need to be ditched all together!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As with most things in life, coffee comes with it's boundaries. Outside it's boundaries, coffee can cause: gut distress, hormonal imbalance, adrenal fatigue, etc. I'm sure most of us have experienced the bathroom problems, jitters, and anxiety coffee CAN cause, which is why I think there's so much confusion around coffee.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, when is coffee a good thing? Within it's ground rules! 👇🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Coffee Ground Rules:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Never drink coffee on an empty stomach. Without food, coffee creates a hormonal catastrophe. It spikes blood sugar and depletes adrenals, leaving you feeling exhausted later in the day and putting your body into a chronic state of stress.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Add grass fed, raw cream/butter, sugar, and/or collagen to your coffee- but only the real stuff! These REAL ingredients will help regulate your blood sugar and feed your adrenals. The worst thing you can do for your thyroid and adrenals is drink coffee black on an empty stomach!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Opt for high quality coffee that is third party tested. Most conventional coffee beans are packed with mycotoxins (aka mold) that isn’t healthy to consume. Looking for coffee that is third party tested helps ensure the quality and benefits of your coffee. Personally, I like Four Sigmatic, Bulletproof, and Illy coffee!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'd be lying if I said I didn't LOVE drinking my hot, frothy cup of coffee each morning. But since learning to enjoy it within it's limits, I've felt a HUGE difference. I'm no longer anxious or jittery because due to drinking black coffee on an empty stomach! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, tell me: did you know these coffee boundaries? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

As promised, after a CRAZY few days, we’re back As promised, after a CRAZY few days, we’re back to our regular programming... Starting with adrenal fatigue! 👇🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are you suffering from this thing called “adrenal fatigue?”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Unfortunately, most of us are dealing with a degree of adrenal fatigue- thanks to high stress lifestyles, processed diets, exposure to everyday toxins, etc.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Even worse, most of these common symptoms are considered "normal” 🙅🏻‍♀️ And most of us just deal with them, thinking it'll never change. But we are so WRONG!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What if I told you: you don't HAVE to live with brain fog, fatigue, low libido, insomnia, depression, and/or weight gain?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Because it’s true!!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you bring your body back into balance, these symptoms naturally dissipate, and once again, you can live with energy, vibrancy, and excitement!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you deal with these symptoms of adrenal fatigue, here's where you can start:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. SLEEP. Aim for 8 hours a night and prioritize sleep over workouts. Without adequate sleep, the adrenals will naturally suffer big time! If you have trouble sleeping, try eating a bedtime snack, eating foods high in magnesium, and blocking out blue light.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. EAT. No, 1,200 calories per day is NOT ENOUGH. Eat more balanced meals, about 3-4 hours apart. And, don't get me started on "low carb" diets. Your body needs carbs for energy, so do your adrenals! Eating now carb is the best way to put your body into a chronic state of stress.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. MOVE. Find a low intensity activity you enjoy (ie. walking, leisurely biking, roller skating) and do it several times a week. If you can get your movement in outside, that's even better. The sun is your best source of Vitamin D! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you suffer from any of these symptoms? What has your experience been with adrenal fatigue? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In case you missed it, Texas has been dealing with In case you missed it, Texas has been dealing with record breaking temperatures, snow fall, and power outages. *Photo is from day 1 before we knew just how crazy things were about to get!*
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After almost 24 hours without power and water, our water came back on and we’ve experienced intermittent power. I am SO THANKFUL to have a working stove, running water, and warm home. I know so many other Texans aren’t as lucky.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ll be back next week to share about adrenal fatigue, coffee hacks, and more nourishing food swaps. But for now, will you join me in praying for Texas? Specifically for:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• the restoration of power and clean water ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• protection over families and homes⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• quick provision over busted pipes and other house issues⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• warm food and drinking water⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

As someone with a MAJOR sweet tooth, I definitely As someone with a MAJOR sweet tooth, I definitely understand the challenge of sugar cravings! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What about you?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have a feeling most of us are a little too familiar with the challenge of sugar cravings. And if you're not, I don't think I believe you.. 😉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Luckily, sugar cravings aren't JUST sugar cravings. They're a great indicator that our body needs some specific support! When I started listening to my body and feeding it the nutrients it needed, my sugar cravings practically disappeared. Sure, I still LOVE a delicious sweet treat, but it's no longer an insatiable craving. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you want to gain control over your sugar cravings, too?Here's where you can start:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Eat balanced meals with protein, carbs, and fat.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Focus on eating whole foods, instead of processed and packaged options.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Eat a meal or snack every 3-4 hours.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. Drink water with a sprinkle of pink Himalayan salt or sea salt throughout the day.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These tips will help regulate your blood sugar, meet your nutrient needs, and provide energy to your mind and body. As a result, you can expect to have LESS SUGAR CRAVINGS! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tag a friend who also has a major sweet tooth! 👇🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

And these Copy Cat Hippie Chip Cookies are just what you're looking for. They’re a homemade version of the BEST cookie from my favorite hometown bakery. Since I no longer live there, I had to perfect this homemade version and I'd say it's pretty darn close. These cookies are chewy, chunky, and sweet & salty. The best kind of cookie, if you ask me! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But, in case chewy cookies aren't your thing, I have other delicious and nutritious cookies on the blog, like Paleo Chocolate Chips Cookies and Pecan Chocolate Cookie Dough Bites!

Is your liver sluggish? 🤷🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀ Is your liver sluggish? 🤷🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Fact of the matter is most of our livers could use a little extra love, thanks to poor diets, stressful lifestyles, alcohol and OTC drugs, and other environmental toxins.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Fundamentally, a healthy liver is NEEDED for detoxing toxins, producing hormones and cholesterol (yes, you need cholesterol), storing and delivering nutrients, and providing glucose for fuel. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, yeah. Healthy livers are important! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But how do we know if our liver needs some love? Common indicators include skin issues, frequent headaches, digestive upset from greasy/fatty foods, morning sickness, and pain in the upper right abdomen.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Luckily, there are many whole foods that naturally support a healthy liver! To give your liver a little extra love, include these liver superfoods in your diet:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Beets⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Dandelion root⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Bone broth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Grass-fed liver⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Lemon ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today, do yourself a favor and love on your liver! ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

When did “eating healthy” get so complicated?! When did “eating healthy” get so complicated?!?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What if we decided to simply EAT REAL FOOD that nourishes and satisfies our bodies?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Over the last several years, I've shifted from a low calorie, artificially sweetened diet to eating real, whole foods and let me tell ya...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have energy. My hormones are balanced and my menstrual cycle is regulated. I no longer crave sweets (but, I still love a good-sized chunk of dark chocolate). I feel satisfied and happy for hours after eating. I'm less likely to feel hangry. My sleep has improved, as well as my mood.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Basically, my life has drastically changed. In the best way possible.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
While everyone is DIFFERENT (and this is in no way intended to be a meal plan for anyone), it's a great example of what a typical "day of eating" looks like for me. You'll find lots of nourishing, real foods full of quality carbs, fat, protein, and dare I say... sugar?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What YOU need to know about PMS⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Monthly PMS symptoms are common, but they ARE NOT NORMAL! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I wish I could scream this from the rooftops because I've seen too many women hopelessly struggle with monthly PMS for years, thinking it's just expected. It's part of "being a woman."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But, this couldn't be further from the truth! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The most common PMS symptoms, like headaches, skin breakouts, cramps, cravings, and mood swings, all have a root cause. THEY ARE NOT NORMAL.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some common triggers/causes of monthly PMS symptoms include:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- A high stress lifestyle⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Refined and processed foods⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Thyroid dysfunction⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Nutrient deficiencies⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Blood sugar imbalances⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Excess caffeine consumption⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, if you struggle with PMS symptoms before or during your period, now what? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's time to play detective... Manage the emotional and physical stress in your life, test for nutrient deficiencies, support healthy thyroid and adrenal function, eat balanced meals made with REAL food, limit caffeine and alcohol. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Moral of the story: DON’T SETTLE FOR PMS!
