Summer Pasta - Gluten and Dairy free

 As I have needed to cook for my family with multiple food allergies I am constantly searching for new recipes and food to make for them.  So, when I find a blog like Allergy Awesomness, I am thrilled.  

Not only are her recipes amazing, but her child also has EOE, like my sons.  I have used her recipes many, many times.  Be sure to check out her site and see all the amazing recipes she has. 

Today's recipe comes directly from her.  My family loves (and fights over) this when I make it! In this family you better grab it quick before it is gone! This is definitely true with this recipe.  

It is perfect for a fresh, summer meal - or leave the chicken out for more of a side dish.  

Yum! 



Summer Pasta - Gluten and Dairy Free
12 oz. gluten free pasta
1.5 cups frozen peas, thawed 
12 oz. bacon, cooked and crumbled 
1 large chicken breast, cooked and chopped
1 cucumber, seeded and chopped 

Sauce: 
2/3 c. mayo
1/3 c. olive oil 
1/4 c. nutritional yeast 
2.5 Tbsp. lemon juice 
1 Tbsp. white vinegar
1 Tbsp. dijon mustard 
1 Tbsp. dried chives 
1 tsp. basil
1/2 tsp. onion powder 
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. sugar 

Cook the pasta, bacon and chicken breast and set aside.  (Rotisserie chicken is great in this recipe.) 
Set peas out to thaw.  Peel and seed the cucumber.  

For the sauce, place all ingredients in blender or food processor and blend until smooth.  

Pour sauce over noodles, peas, bacon, chicken and cucumber and stir until combined.  
Delicious served warm or cold!
