About This Dish
Kids Rotini with Meat Sauce (Gluten Sensitive) at Olive Garden is the heartier of the two gluten-sensitive kids' pasta options, priced at $6.99 and featuring kid-sized gluten-free rotini with the restaurant's homemade meat sauce. The full combination including grapes and milk totals approximately 340 to 480 calories. The meal includes a side of grapes or broccoli and 1% low-fat milk for children under 12. Breadsticks are not included to accommodate dietary needs but are available upon request.
The meat sauce is made with pan-seared ground beef and Italian sausage — the same preparation as the adult meat sauce, reduced to a kid-appropriate portion. At $6.99, it is an excellent value for parents looking for a gluten-friendly meal that includes meat protein naturally within the sauce rather than as a separate add-on. Children who prefer a more robust, meaty sauce over the straight tomato marinara find this the more satisfying of the two kids' gluten-sensitive pasta options.
