This recipe is of course not only gluten free but also contains no meat. You could certainly add chicken breast to the recipe for a more filling option or to satisfy the meat eaters in your family. If you are not concerned with gluten free eating, you could definitely substitute a traditional pasta or a whole grain pasta for a still delicious and healthy option.
