Summery rice salad

I am on the other side of the world to many of you which is why I am in beach mode and posting summer recipes. Never fear - all recipes are posted on the blog and can be searched in any season, halfway down on the right hand side. The whole family gave me multiple compliments on this one so I felt I had to post it!

1 tsp ground turmeric

1/4 C fresh mint, finely sliced

1/2 - 3/4 C natural yoghurt (depending on preference)

1 tsp coconut oil

2 boneless chicken thighs

1 large carrot, peeled and diced

1/2 yellow or red bell pepper/capsicum, ribs and seeds removed, diced 

1/2 cucumber, washed and diced

Ingredient information (based on advice by SIGHI)

- Yoghurt is rated 1 - This is the only one I tolerate

- All other ingredients are rated 0 without caveats

0 - Well tolerated, no symptoms expected at usual intake 

1 - Minor symptoms, occasional consumption of small quantities is often tolerated 

2 - Incompatible, significant symptoms at usual intake 

3 - Very poorly tolerated, severe symptoms

Hot tips!

🔥 Very quickly boiling the broccolini is OK if you don't have a double steamer.  

🔥 Chicken breast is also OK but it doesn't have as much flavour (and it is more expensive!)

🔥 Leftovers can be frozen
