Just made this today - SOOO good. I did add chopped, de-seeded jalapenos and used Uncle Ben's Wild Rice, which I was worried about - but turned out amazing!! I'm not serving it until tomorrow so that all the flavors can blend, and I used orange bell pepper instead. Oh, and I LOVE cliantro, so I used a ton of fresh cilantro, just thrown in. I doubled the recipe because I am cooking for a potluck.
This was so good! We didn't change a thing, except that we forgot to add the avocado and everyone still gobbled it up. It was even better the next day!
I've been looking for a good rice salad for a while. Finally, here it is! I like that it has a lot of veggies that I can pick from my late summer garden. I used brown rice and substituted basil for cilantro. The whole family enjoyed it.
This is much more than 4 servings in our household! We like to wrap the ingredients in a tortilla... can be eaten warm or chilled - wonderful staple for our "meatless Mondays"!
Love this salad! I think it makes way more than 4 servings. This is a great dish to take to a pot luck or eat at home as a side dish.
This salad is as tasty as it is colorful; pleasing to all the senses. My whole family loved it...even the picky toddlers!
