Just look at this Cajun-Italian influence.

I know what you’re thinking. You want it to influence you in the face. This is why we’re friends.

As someone who eats a gluten-free diet, I get asked a lot if I miss pizza, bread, and pasta.

My response is always, “Naaaah man…nah!” Because I still eat all them good foods in gluten-free form. 

I first tried Ancient Harvestโ€™s gluten-free pastas a few years ago and instantly adored them.

Their pastas are made out of quinoa flour and corn flour, and they can be used in any and all of your favorite pasta dishes.

You can even make pasta dishes that aren’t really pasta dishes…like gumbo pasta.

Totally untraditional, but heck, if we’re broadening our horizons to GF pasta, we may as well let this freedom reign.

It’s pasta season.

My favorite part about this meal is it’s a one-pot dish.

As in UNO.

No boiling the pasta separately, no colander necessary. Just you, your ingredients and one big ol’ pot o’ pasta.

This easy-to-prepare and easy-clean-up recipe is perfect for whipping up any night of the week.

Prepare for gumbo pasta leftovers in your lunch, because the recipe makes plenty to feed 4 to 6 individuals!

Sluuuurp!

Questions and Reviews

  1. I made this tonight with smoked chicken sausage as a substitute. My whole family loved this! The four kids all happily wolfed it down! Their ages range from 8yo down to almost 2yo. To find something they will all it is a freakin’ miracle! My Cajun heritage appreciated the flavor without having to spend time making a roux. It’s going into our regular rotation as requested. Thank you!!!

  2. This was great! Used wheat pasta, so it took a little bit longer to cook and I added it before the initial 10 minute simmer time was up. Turned out really well and was full of flavor.

  3. This was AWESOME!!! OMG, so amazing. My tastebuds are dancing. My mouth can’t stop smiling.. Angels are singing. This is magic, thank you for an amazing dinner.

    1. Wahooo!!! I’m so glad you like the recipe, Deb!! I was very impressed by the way it turned out too. Like I may just make it each and every time I’m craving pasta. Or Shrimp. Or sausage. Or food… ๐Ÿ˜‰

  4. I was stoked to see pasta on here! Pasta eater 4 lyfe (sorry, zoodles on their own just don’t cut it for me!!)

    1. High fives to the GF pasta luuurve! I do love a good zoodle dish, but you hit the nail on the head – you just can’t replace a legit noodle!

  5. Yes to one pot. Yes to pasta g-free style. Double yes to shrimp and spice. You’re killing me, smalls. Pinned.

  6. Italian+Cajun in one dinner=a great thing!! And Ancient Harvest quinoa pasta is my family’s fave! By far the best GF pasta I’ve tried.

  7. I’m coming over to your place for a big ol’ bowl of this pasta in mah face, but first I’m off to vote fer ya!

  8. Love the one pot thing you got going on right now! Quinoa noodles are my fave! They are all I feed the kid, well along with a lot of healthy veggies. I cannot wait to make this, gumbo for all!

  9. This one pot dish is PERFECT for days when I’m feeling all lazy pants. Look at all that sausage and shrimp! I’m in love.

  10. Quinoa pasta?!!! How have I not heard of this?!! Totally checking out Ancient Harvestโ€™s gluten-free pastas now!! love!

  11. We are happy to see that you can still stuff your face with flavorful pasta! I have tried this pasta and love it. Good luck on the competition – can’t wait to see you take over their IG.

  12. Wow, this looks really comforting, and I love all that shrimp in there! Don’t skimp on the shrimp, I say! ๐Ÿ™‚ I hope you win, we buy that brand of GF pasta all the time. Super good!

  13. True story: that is EXACTLY how I reacted ๐Ÿ˜‰ Another true story: I made a very similar recipe yesterday on my day off (minus the shrimp) SO GOOD.

  14. Oh, I want this!!! Also, I voted. I will do my best to remember to vote tomorrow, too. Hopefully, something will spur my brain into remembering. I have nothing witty to say today. Steinbeck spent too many hours last night snoring into my ear and I already need a nap. Clearly, I need pasta for this day.
