22 Best Gluten-Free Noodle Recipes

A big bowl of noodles is utter comfort food no matter the weather and with the endless flavours you can add to them, you’ll never get bored. These 20 Best Gluten-Free Noodle recipes offer you a range of inspiration, from vegan to Paleo and everything in between.

Our collective idea of what constitutes a noodle has expanded in recent years. There are the traditional gluten-free noodle and pasta shapes made from gluten-free flours, plus a ton of alternatives based on the rise of popular diets like Paleo and keto. Now we have zucchini noodles – and basically any noodle from a vegetable that can be spiralized – as well as noodles made from seaweed, beans, legumes and konjac root (shirataki noodles). And we love them all.

Grab a fork, spoon or chopsticks and slurp away!
