GMO 101 Book Progress
This week, I worked hard to finish the front part of GMO 101. I sent it to Becky Rider, my trusted editor. I should get it back fairly soon. Meanwhile, I will start to put the book’s formatting together so I can send it to my potential endorsements.
Meanwhile, you only have a couple of days left to vote on the GMO 101 book cover. For that, please click HERE.

Chef Alain’s Weekly Recipe
Salade au Saumon Poché et Courgette – Poached Salmon and Zucchini Salad
The original version of this recipe had pasta in it. To make it Paleo, I replaced it with zucchini run through a spiral slicer to turn it into pasta. If you do not have access to one of those, cut your zucchini into bâtonnets (thin sticks) or run through a shredder et Voila! Another original and tasty salad.
Servings: 4
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes

– 8 oz fish broth
– 4 oz arugula salad
– 1 zucchini, pasta sliced or grated
– 1 tomato, diced
Dressing:
– 1 fresh lemon juice
– 1 tsp Dijon mustard
– 1 shallot, minced
– ¼ tsp sea salt
– 1 pinch cayenne pepper
– 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Decoration:
– 1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Procedure
Preparation:
1. Bring your fish broth to a gentle simmer. Poach your cut salmon until tender. Drain and cool.
2. Wash and dry the arugula salad.
3.With a spiral slicer, turn your zucchini into pasta or grate or cut into thin sticks.
4. Cut your tomato into small dices.
