I don't know about you but I always end up with leftover rice. Whether it is from a takeout container or rice I made the night before, I tend to find myself with a cup or two in the fridge the next day. So don't throw it out! Make this healthy and delicious rice salad.
Serves 2
2 cups leftover brown, red or black rice
2 small cucumbers chopped
1/2 cup shredded or chopped carrots
1/2 cup tomatoes halved
1/2 cup diced bell pepper
1/4 cup torn basil leaves
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Sea Salt and Pepper to taste
Add the rice and veggies to a large salad bowl. Gently toss in basil and drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
