Mums Truly Amazing Rice Salad

I can honestly say, with hand on heart that this is my absolute favorite salad I could eat it for Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and still go back for seconds it's a definite must try and I promise you will not be disappointed.

Rice Mixture

2 Cups Brown Rice
1 Red Pepper (capsicum)
1 Green Pepper (capsicum)
1 Tin Sweet Corn
4 Stalks Spring Onions
1 Cup Cashews
1/2 Cup Sunflower Seeds
1 Cup Currants

Dressing

1/2 Cup EVOO
2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
2 - 3 Cloves Garlic Crushed
1 Juice of Lemon

Cook rice following directions on packet

Dice peppers and spring onions in to small cashew slice bits

Mix all the rice mixture together, except cashews these go soggy so mix in just before serving

In a separate bowl mix the dressing together and then pour over over rice mixture, mixing well so all ingredients are well coated.

If your on the MS Recovery diet or Best Bet Diet you could substitute the soy sauce for balsamic vinegar and the corn for a yellow pepper to give the salad that lovely bright yellow colour, also sometimes I have a problem finding natural currants so I use natural sultana's to give that little sweetness.
