Most people are curious and interested about trying the foods I talk about, but are wary of trying to use foods like quinoa or spelt or kamut. Sign up for my Mail-Out Meals!

The recipes for this session will include: *Toasted Almond & Quinoa Salad*, *Garlic-Rosemary Spelt Foccaccia Bread*, *Apple-Cherry Muffins*, *Homemade Granola*, and *(Your Name Here) Energy Bars*
The cost is $45 and if you are interested, send me an e-mail to lkm.nutrition@gmail.com
The weather is getting nice and it is time for A Fresh Summer Salad! I created this pasta salad on the weekend and it was lovely! I got the dressing from jae steele's 'Get it Ripe', easily one of my favourite cookbooks
2 Cups brown rice pasta (or whole wheat), cooked according to package directions
1 C leftover chicken, cut into large bite-size pieces
1 medium carrot, grated
1/2 onion, chopped fine
1/2 red sweet pepper, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 mango, chopped into small pieces
2 inches of English Cucumber, sliced into quearters
1 Tbsp miso paste
1 Tbsp Almond Butter
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 Tbsp Tamari Soy sauce
2 cloves of garlic, chopped fine
3/4 C olive oil
1/3 C apple cider vinegar
fresh ground pepper
Combine the pasta, and vegetables in a large salad bowl.
In a large-mouth jar combine miso, almond butter, maple syrup, tamari & garlic. Mix well with a fork. Add the olive oil & vinergar. put the lid ont he jhar and shake well until the ingredients are combined.
Pour the dressing over the salad and gently combine. You can use as much or as little dressing as you want. Put the lid on the remainig dressing for a salad later in the week.
