Pasta salad is a staple in many households but sometimes it can be a little heavy to digest. This salad uses gluten-free pasta as well as goat milk feta, which is easier to digest than cow’s milk feta. It’s packed with digestive-friendly ingredients like extra-virgin olive oil and lemon juice, to help reduce inflammation.
