Throw a bunch of ingredients into a blender, blitz, transfer to my drink bottle and I’m ready to go.  It’s about 18 months since Gluten Free Man went gluten free and in that time I’ve formed one or two opinions on gluten free pasta. First up, there are some pretty decent substitutes out there. Brown rice spaghetti doesn’t taste that different to its whole-wheat counterpart and I’d be pushed to spot that some pasta shapes are gluten free when smothered in a tomato based sauce.
