The thermometer went over 70 degrees yesterday, so I had summer salad on my mind. This is SO easy to make and extremely delicious. Give it a try!

Are you buying a Balsamic glaze? or is that when you add a little sugar & reduce it on the stove for 20 minutes?

I found the balsamic glaze at a local independent store. Forget to say that (whoops)

Just make sure that it's gluten free.

PS - It tastes even better the day after you make it. That feta-mint combination is amazing.

I make a yummy pasta salad. No actual recipe. It contains tri-color quinoa pasta, cooked, rinsed and cooled. Then grape tomatoes, sliced green onion, olives, kidney beans, garbanzo beans, cucumbers and radishes, sliced, baby carrots, sliced celery and any other raw veggies you like. Cubes of Swiss cheese and slices of hard salami cut into strips are also good in here. Dressed with Italian dressing.

We also like raw corn salad. Just fresh sweet corn cut from the cob mixed with canned black or kidney beans, sliced green onion, chopped tomato, chopped peppers, cilantro and a little salt. Can use hot peppers if you like them.

Costco has a bag of frozen fire roasted corn kernels. This past Saturday, we simply heated on the stove at a low temperature, added the juice of 2 limes, dash of sea salt and then hot sauce. So tasty!

Although your recipe sounds even more delicious. I'll try it this weekend.

I will try these. I like to make a salad with grilled corn, chicken, whatever and use salsa for a very low- cal dressing.

I like to throw one salad meal in my regular weekly menu. Sometimes its just "salad bar night" and sometimes its more of a prepared salad.

I think your watermelon salad will be a keeper, but I have to wait until watermelon is in season around here. Thanks for sharing.

This week we're doing an Italian salad w/ pepperoni, mozzerella and black olives.

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed...

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them.

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
