Smoked chicken and kelp noodle salad

Vanessa Lewis

Kelp Noodles are a sea vegetable in the form of an easy to eat raw noodle; they are fat-free, gluten-free, and super low in carbs and calories. Great in salads, rich in trace minerals including iodine, which kelp is well known for. These amazing noodles can be found in health food shops (online too).
