Low FODMAP Pasta Salad with Homemade Dressing

Published September 22, 2016
Updated June 23, 2026

This is one of RBA’s favorite recipes to make when following a low-FODMAP diet! Try our low FODMAP pasta salad for lunch or as a side dish! What makes this dish so great are the low FODMAP alternatives which pull the dish together. Garlic is a great way to add flavor to any dish. Unfortunately, garlic is one of the most concentrated sources of FODMAPs. Thankfully, Fody Foods offers many low FODMAP-friendly alternatives! In this recipe, we use their tasty garlic-infused olive oil to add flavor. Instead of regular pasta, which is not low FODMAP friendly, we’re using Ancient Harvest’s gluten-free pasta. They use a mix of corn, brown rice, and quinoa to make it so great you’ll forget it’s gluten-free!
