TUNA SALAD
This salad can be enjoyed as an appetizer or small meal. Tuna is naturally rich in omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D. It also contains all essential amino acids required by the body for growth and maintenance of lean muscle tissue. Make sure to buy a high quality tuna with low mercury levels.
INGREDIENTS
2 5-oz. cans of high quality tuna ( I use safe catch ahi wild yellowfin tuna steak)
1 celery stalk, minced
4 scallions, minced
1/4 cup mayonnaise (I use Primal Kitchen MAYO)
2 tbsp homemade yoghurt (see recipe below)
1 tbsp SCD legal mustard
1 tsp lemon juice
sea salt and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
In a medium bowl, break down tuna. Add the celery and scallions and mix well. Add mayonnaise, yoghurt, mustard, lemon juice stir to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste.
HOMEMADE YOGHURT
Tools:
yoghurt maker with one large container
yoghurt maker with single glass jars
INGREDIENTS
1 quart whole or skim milk
1 pint heavy whipping cream (If you want it with less fat, you can also replace heavy whipping cream with milk)
7 oz SCD legal yoghurt or yoghurt starter
note: For strict SCD, it is recommended to avoid yoghurt starter containing bifidus.
INSTRUCTIONS
Place the milk and heavy whipping cream in a saucepan and heat at high heat until bubbles appear on the edges. (Do not boil!) Stir often to prevent the milk from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Remove the pot from the stove and let cool until it has reached room temperature or below (about 64-77° F or 20-25° C).
Spoon the yoghurt starter into a mixing bowl and add one cup of the cooled milk. Mix well until a thick paste forms.
Add the yoghurt/milk mixture to the saucepan and stir well to distribute evenly.
Fill into yoghurt maker containers and place in the yoghurt maker machine. Make sure to follow the manual of your specific yoghurt maker. The mixture must ferment for at least 24 hours to ensure that all of the lactose has been broken down by beneficial bacteria.
Take out of the machine and refrigerate for at least two hours before using. Keep refrigerated!
