This is such a yummy and healthy recipe that I thought I would repost it today. You could TOTALLY make it with quinoa instead of rice and it would be yummy and even healthier! It’s a perfect spring/summer recipe….great for a picnic or BBQ. Enjoy!
CORN & RICE SALAD RECIPE
This is a delicious and healthy recipe.
I have made it different ways, but most recently made it with brown rice and it was delicious! It is very flavorful. It’s a great lunch or it could be a side dish with grilled chicken, for example. It would also be good on tacos.
Another great idea would be to stuff tomatoes or bell pepper with it for a pretty presentation. You could even do cherry tomatoes for an appetizer to entertain with.
ENJOY!
