Instructions

  1. Add the wild rice to a fine mesh sieve and rinse with cold water under the faucet.
  2. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and add the wild rice. Cook for 40-50 minutes or until the rice is tender and has started to split open. Drain the rice.
  3. Add the rice and remaining ingredients to a large mixing bowl and toss to combine. Drizzle with the lemon vinaigrette.

Notes

  • This is a great "make ahead" salad and it's perfect for meal prep. You can see me make it in my Spring Meal Prep video.
  • And while you can use any brand of wild rice, this is the brand of wild rice that I personally use and recommend as its organic.
