🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For gluten-free needs, swap the wheat pasta and flour for gluten-free versions, or use a gluten-free thickener in the sauce. For dairy-free eating, use unsweetened plant milk and a melting vegan cheese blend; the balsamic-arugula salad already suits most diets.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad or roasted tomatoes to balance the rich, cheesy pasta, and add garlic bread if you want a heartier meal. For extra freshness, include lemony vegetables or a simple fruit salad on the side.
