Glassy Noodle Salad

Posted April 13, 2012 By Janice Glassy Noodle Salad

Ok, I have found another life saver!!  These noodles are fabulous and have virtually no calories, fat or carbs.  They’re made from kelp so I’d keep them for Protein Vegetable days.  But they are well worth the wait!  I used a bit of leftover chicken and dressing from last night’s Italian Marinated Chicken and made this fabulous salad!  I found mine at Whole Foods in the refrigerated section near the Seafood counter.  Ask them if they carry them, and if not, tell them they should!!  I also include a link below if you wanted to buy them online!  Remember!!  These are NOT regular glass noodles.  Those are full of calories and carbs!!  I just found them on amazon.com too!!  Link below…

GLASSY NOODLE SALAD

Kelp Noodles

1/2 12 oz package of Sea Tangle Kelp Noodles, chopped
2 chicken thighs, cooked and cubed
1 cucumber, quartered lengthwise and chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped

Mix all ingredients together and toss in a large resealable baggie.  Dress with salad dressing, seal and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

DRESSING
1 package of dry Italian dressing mix
3 oz vinegar, I used balsamic but red wine would be great too
2 oz water
0-2 t olive oil (none in attack, 1-2 in cruise is ok since you’re not eating the entire recipe!!)
2 T chili paste

Mix all ingredients together and chill until ready to use.
