Ingredients
- 1 cup of uncooked pasta like macaroni or small shells
- 8 ounces of cooked salmon without skin
- ½ cup of finely chopped red or yellow onion
- 1 cup of diced celery pieces
- 1 medium-sized red apple, finely diced
- ½ cup of either chopped walnuts or dry-roasted unsalted peanuts
- For the dressing:
- 1 container (6 ounces) of fat-free yogurt
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 tablespoon of curry powder
- 2 teaspoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 cloves of crushed garlic
- 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon of salt (adjust to your preference)
- Freshly ground black pepper, to your liking
Step 1
Prepare the pasta following the instructions on the package, then give it a good rinse. Next, in a spacious bowl, mix together the initial six ingredients for a burst of flavors. In a separate smaller bowl, whip up the dressing ingredients to create a zesty blend. Gently drizzle the dressing over the salad mixture and delicately toss everything together. You can either chill it in the fridge for later or enjoy it right away at room temperature.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep your pasta fresh and prevent it from going stale by storing it in an airtight container.
- 2. To maintain the flavor of your curry paste, store it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.
