Gluten-Free Chicken Pasta Salad
This recipe is perfect if you have IBS and have to be careful with what food goes into your body. Every ingredient in the recipe falls under the Low FODMAP foods. I have to eat gluten free, so I made my own version of pasta salad. I start with a whole box or bag, 12 or 14 ounces, of gluten-free pasta. This recipe can also be cut in half if you would like. Enjoy!
