If you’re a pickle lover like me this dill pickle pasta salad will be your new favorite salad for summer! Using gluten or grain free pasta with crispy bacon plus plenty of pickles in the salad and dressing, it’s loaded with savory tangy flavor and perfect to bring to your next BBQ or picnic!
It’s time to celebrate summer with pasta salad!
For the longest time I went completely without pasta, subbing in zucchini noodles or spaghetti squash.
Spoiler alert – even though veggies clearly have their place in my diet, they don’t make a truly accurate replacement for pasta!
I then tried cassava pasta, which I really love! And recently branched out to cook other gluten free pastas.
