  1. Not sure what happened, but I see the 4th of July mason jar cheesecake recipe on this page instead of the Balsamic Asparagus, Tomato, and Feta Salad recipe. Is it possible to send the salad recipe via email? I have searched Pinterest too for the recipe and it too comes up with the 4th of July recipe. Thank you so much!

    1. I will email it to you right away Audra! Can you tell me where you were linking from when you ended up in the wrong recipe? I’d love to get that fixed. Was it maybe Hometalk or my email?

    Your friend might want to talk to a wine expert about the problem with her gluten illness. Good vinegar Balsamic is aged in oak barrels, that formerly contained wine during itโ€™s first fermenting stage. It can be in those barrels for 50+ years aging itself. During that time any remaining yeast from the wine it followed. A balsamic reduction concentrates the the vinegar since youโ€™re evaporating the water from it to obtain it. Not many people realize yeast doesnโ€™t get all of its energy from sugar. That just enables us to test it. it grows on flour too,, but more slowly, in a controlled fashion. A wheat flour may have been the substrate for the yeast used for the wine.. That would cause her a nasty reaction. In a Celiac Disease patient, it definitely. She should get a full spectrum allergy testing, as well. Where 1 major problem exists, more may be lurking. Food allergies are often found in groups. They would test for all grains and seeds, to determine which ones are most problematic, then if there are other allergies, sheโ€™ll know about them. They might be able to offer some treatment options or meal planning help.

    Now about your salad. It sounds great. It contains all of my favorite ingredients and the dressing sounds unique and different using reduction instead o straight vinegar balsamic. Iโ€™ve put it on my list of salads to try..

    1. Thanks for all the good info MaryAnn! I’ll make sure my friend sees it. Although she’s so highly allergic she has done extensive research and testing. She’s mostly gun shy about dishes with balsamic in restaurants because it’s usually a glaze. I get it, I’m highly allergic to avocados which is sad so I avoid them like the plague. I hope you enjoy the salad!!
