Ingredients
- Rice vermicelli (if you are on AIP or paleo diet replace with sweet potato glass noodles) Rice vermicelli are thin rice flour noodles. Thanks to the fact that they are made of rice, those noodles are gluten free. But rice vermicelli are not grain free so they are not paleo nor AIP compliant.
- Shredded carrot. You can run the carrots through your food processor using the grating attachment. Or you can grate the carrots on your box grater.
- Avocado
- Shrimp. Shrimps are one of the most consumed types of shellfish. They are quite nutritious and provide high amounts of certain nutrients, such as iodine. Shrimps often come already cooked in the grocery store. Good news: this is what you will need to make this recipe. If you buy already cooked and peeled shrimp, make sure there are no additives in the ingredients.
- Fresh cilantro / coriander or fresh mint leaves
For the Asian style salad dressing
- Tamari sauce (if you are on AIP, paleo or if you are soy free replace with coconut aminos). What is tamari sauce? It is a gluten free soy sauce. Regular soy sauce contains wheat (and, consequently, gluten). If you are soy free, AIP or paleo you must use coconut aminos instead of tamari sauce. Coconut aminos is a gluten free, soy free, paleo and AIP compliant alternative to soy sauce. It is made from the fermented sap of coconut palm.
- Lemon juice, freshly squeezed.
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Fish sauce: make sure to check the ingredients in order to choose a compliant fish sauce
