Zucchini Noodle Chicken Salad

March 30, 2011 by 1 Comment

 

Once upon a time, it was a warm and sunny day in the middle of March in Maryland.  Ah, boy did it feel good after the long and cold winter we had experienced.  It gave us hope that spring was here and that the ridiculously cold winter had decided to finally give up its firm grip.  We opened the windows and let in the fresh air.  When dinner came, I looked in the fridge and remembered something I had been thinking about – gluten free pasta salad made out of zucchini noodles and anything else I might have on hand.  It turned into a zucchini AND carrot noodle salad because I only had one zucchini.  But this made it all the more colorful.  I added black olives, tomatoes and fresh parsley, some cooked chicken and a simple salad dressing.

Yes, spring was here and it felt wonderful.  Well, for a couple of days that is.  I am really trying not to be a grump about the fact that it is freezing outside (maybe not litterally, but it feels like it!)  But I am really not happy about it!

But I can at least share my recipe with you in case you already have some nice warm weather, or you simply want to have some hope that someday soon we will be enjoying pasta salads and other warm weather meals!

The great thing about this salad is that it is very versatile.  If you can’t eat tomatoes, you can use veggies like cooked green beans, sugar snap peas, or cooked asparagus.

Recipe for:  Zucchini Pasta Chicken and Vegetable Salad (grain-free, rice-free, dairy-free, gluten-free, soy-free)

You will need a julianne peeler for this recipe to make long, thin noodles.  But you can also use a regular vegetable peeler to make wider noodles.
