Gruyere and cream cheese are what made the sauce extra creamy. The pasta is tossed with the sauce and then topped with mozzarella cheese which gives this Italian meal that cheesy goey topping we love so much!

The result → baked pasta in the most flavourful creamy cheesy tomato sauce and melted mozzarella topping. For extra heartiness and flavour, the chorizo sausage. However, the chorizo is optional.

I can’t tell you enough how easy this recipe is! To make this pasta bake, you start by cooking the pasta. Then, add olive oil, garlic, and herbs using the same pot. Cook for a minute, then add everything else except the pasta and mozzarella.

substitutions for pasta bake 

The wonderful thing about this gluten-free pasta bake recipe is its versatility. You can change the ingredients making this Italian dish your new signature gluten-free pasta meal.

First, for the pasta, I used fettucini. However, you can use spaghetti or short cut pasta such as gluten-free rotini, rigatoni or penne.

For the cheese, you can use any good melting cheese. The first one that comes to mind would be fontina cheese, but gouda, cheddar or Camembert all will work beautifully in this recipe.

I have also added chorizo sausage for extra flavour. But you can make it a vegetarian pasta dish by replacing the chorizo with mushrooms, zucchini or bell peppers.

Or, you can omit the veggies and chorizo sausage altogether. There is so much flavour in the sauce that you don’t need to add anything else.

We all have a favourite gluten-free pasta dish. For us, this Italian recipe is it! Because this gluten-free pasta bake will please picky eaters and hearty appetites alike.

So, if you’re searching for a delicious gluten-free Italian meal that takes only minutes to prepare, you found it!
