Wild Rice Salad



This is a bit of an impromptu posting: I just threw together this salad for lunch and it tasted so good I had to share it with you. This is what I call and open-palm recipe; in other words there aren't really any measurements, just a bit of what you have in your refrigerator. Take the recipe as a starting point and be creative.

Wild Rice Salad:

cooked wild rice
chopped yellow pepper
dried cranberries
chopped red onion
diced beetroot
chopped flat leaf parsley
crumbled pecans (6 - 8)
drizzle of olive oil
drizzle of aged balsamic olive oil
drizzle of red wine vinegar

What would you add to this?

  1. Looking at this again, I'd add a nice, tart green apple.

  2. That is a great idea. I never think to buy them, but they are so good in salads. Also made a variation on this with roast squash.
