Description

Kelp noodles are clear and crunchy, but very low carb. This refreshing salad for four can be ready to serve in about 15 minutes. Great for a summer lunch or dinner, or to take to a BBQ or picnic. Even better the next day—the noodles soften, and the flavors meld! Suitable for Atkins, Keto, LCHF, low carb, diabetic, low glycemic, gluten free, grain free, sugar free, dairy free, nut free, coconut free, meal prep, make-ahead.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE SALAD:
  • 12 ounces, weight Tangle Kelp Noodles
  • 12 ounces, weight Roasted Chicken, Cubed
  • 2 ounces, weight Kumquats With Peel, Thin Sliced
  • 1 ounce, weight Red Radish, Thin Sliced Into Half Moons
  • 2  Large Scallions (Green Onions), Thin Sliced On Diagonal
  • ¼ cups Sliced Or Slivered Almonds, Plus More For Garnish If Desired
  • ¼ cups Chopped Cilantro, For Garnishing
  • FOR THE DRESSING:
  • 6 Tablespoons Organicville Ginger Miso Dressing (See Notes)
  • 3 Tablespoons Unseasoned Rice Vinegar (I Use Mitsukan)
  • 3 Tablespoons La Choy Or Other Gluten Free Soy Sauce, Tamari, Or Coconut Aminos
  • 1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
  • 1-½ Tablespoon Sukrin Gold Granular Sweetener

Preparation

Rinse noodles under cold water, and drain well. Let sit in the sieve for a few minutes, then lay out on paper towels. Pat dry as well as possible. With scissors, cut noodles into bite size pieces into a large mixing bowl.

Chop chicken and all remaining salad ingredients, and add to the bowl.

Mix all of the dressing ingredients in a measuring cup, stirring with a fork or small whisk to mix well. Pour over the salad, and toss. At this point, the salad may be stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

When ready to serve, divide into serving bowls. Top with chopped cilantro, and additional sliced nuts if desired.

Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

Notes:
• The flavor of this salad will be better the next day due to the kumquats permeating the salad. The noodles also soften overnight in the dressing. So, if you have time, make the salad with everything except the onions the night before and let it stand. It’s good either way, just better the next day.
• I use the Organicville Ginger Miso Dressing as a base for my Asian dressing because it’s easy to find and easy to adapt to various flavor profiles. If you can’t find it, use your own favorite Asian dressing and deduct 2 carbs (whole and net) from this recipe.
• Nutrition estimates are based on My Fitness Pal’s online recipe analyzer. Brand names are included only to assure more accurate estimates. The recipe is stored on and available to MFP users for logging in their food diaries.
