GF Salmon Pasta Salad Supreme

Prep:40minCook:20min

This recipe was created to deal with my family's various allergies. Among the things it does not have are Wheat, Barley, Rye, foods that appear to cause joint swelling, and as best as we can tell, foods that don't cause increases in estrogen (avoid the honey, though). It's easy to modify, so feel free to experiment. I call it "Supreme", because like a Pizza, it has lots of things on it.

Step 3

1. While Salmon is cooking, gather the apples, green beans, olives, carrots, and basil. 2. Wash/rinse the apples, olives, carrots, and basil. Pat dry. 2a. (optional) If you are using fresh green beans, you should snap and cook them first. We usually use leftovers. If you are using canned green beans, they will not be very firm, but rinse them first. Alternately, use fresh asparagus (also cooked) 3. Core the apples and cut into small cubes. Add to large bowl. 4. If you have pre-shredded carrots, put them in the same bowl. If you are shredding your own, use a separate bowl or plate, then add the shredded carrots to the apples. 5. Add the Green Beans. 6. Add the Olives. If you are using whole olives, slice them first; otherwise, they tend to roll around while being chased by a fork. 7. Stem the Basil. If the leaves are very large, tear them into smaller pieces. Add to the bowl.

Step 5

1. Place 1 cup of Plain Greek Goat Yogurt in a medium bowl. 2. Add the Olive Oil. 3. Juice a lemon to get 2 tablespoons, or use reconstituted Lemon Juice. Add to bowl. 4. Add Apple Cider Vinegar. 5. Add Crushed Rosemary, Thyme, Salt and pepper 6. Add Honey or Molasses. 7. Whisk until well blended. 8. Taste and adjust seasoning. Remember that the other bowl has sweetness from the apples, so it's okay for the dressing to be a bit tangy. 8a. (optional) You can dd your favorite dressing here instead of this homemade one. We use the homemade to avoid the allergens in the store-bought ones. 9. Drizzle the dressing on the salad fixin's in the large bowl. 9a. Alternatively, serve the salads into bowls, and have each family member use their own dressing. 10. Serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers.
