We love pasta. So much so, that we’re not willing to give it up when warmer weather rolls around. So while we might not be turning on our ovens to make a hearty lasagna, you can still have your cannoli and eat it too during summer months. And yes, we’ve even included some gluten-free options for you! *chef kiss*

Creamy Avocado Pasta: Avocados just make everything better, including pasta. Use it on hot or cold dishes and go crazy with your toppings!

Summer Spaghetti with Tomatoes, Burrata & Basil: If you’re not aboard the burrata train yet, it’s time to hop on. These fresh ingredients make for the perfect weeknight meal that’s reminiscent of the Italian countryside, but still light enough for summer heat.

Cacio e Pepe with Kale: Sure, kale is “technically” a winter veggie, but it makes the perfect healthy addition to your summer pasta dish. Try this tasty combo for your next Meatless Monday!

Summer Pasta Primavera: If there’s one quintessential summer pasta dish, it’s pasta primavera. Pack this meal full of all your favorite summer veggies like squash and heirloom tomatoes. And whatever you do, don’t forget the glass of Pinot!

Garlic Spaghetti Squash with Herbs: Another grain-free option, we love the savory combo of garlic and toasted pine nuts in this yummy dish.

Patty Pan Pappardelle Pasta: If you love summer squash as much as we do, you’ll love this delicious dinner made with the freshest ingredients.

Farmers Market Pasta Dinner: Use all those ripe goodies you scored at the farmers’ market to whip up a buttery white wine sauce, and dinner is served!

Goat Cheese and Shrimp Pasta: The creamy goat cheese and fresh tomatoes help keep this dinner light, yet satisfying for all of your summer weeknights.
