A hearty, flavorful salad.
Ingredients:
1 cup uncooked brown rice
2 kiwifruit
1 Braeburn or Fuji apple
1/2 cup thinly chopped celery
1/2 cup strips of red pepper
1/4 cup toasted walnut pieces
1/4 cup thinly chopped green onions
2 Tbsp chopped parsley
3 Tbsp sherry vinegar
1 Tbsp olive oil
Directions:
Cook rice according to package directions (about 25 to 30 minutes). Drain and cool.
Peel kiwifruit and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices. Cut slices in half to form half circles. Core apple and dice apple into 1/2-inch cubes.
In a salad bowl toss together cooked rice, kiwifruit, apple, celery, red pepper strips, walnuts, green onions and parsley. Mix together vinegar and oil; drizzle over salad. Toss to mix well.
Cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours to allow flavors to blend before serving.
