Are you looking for a quick and healthy portable lunch or fast dinner? Do you or someone in your family suffer from Celica’s disease or gluten intolerance? If so then this recipe is for you.
I love this quick and easy go to salad, and my kids think the rice noodles are hilarious (go figure a 4.5 year old and 2.5 year old they think the strangest things are funny ).
The following is for one serving:
Poach or sauté a ½ – 1 boneless skinless chicken breast, while you are preparing the chicken cook the rice noodles. I love using rice noodles since they only take a couple minutes to cook. Shred a carrot, slice ½ a bell pepper, shred about ¾ cup of green or purple (or combination of both) cabbage. Slice 1/8 or amount you like of red onion, if you enjoy peanuts you can add a small handful. Fresh mint and parsley makes this salad pop with a wonderful freshness. Lightly dress with red wine vinegar or sesame dressing.
This is a great portable lunch or a great dinner with the addition of a side green salad. You have lean protein; you will get over 100 % vitamin A & C in this salad, along with calcium, iron, and fiber. Hope you enjoy this salad as much as my family and I do.
