Insalata di Riso Italian Rice Salad
Traditional cold rice salad is considered fast food in Italy, used for picnics and lunches on the go. Great for hot days when you don't want to heat up the kitchen. Add a few drops of your favorite hot pepper sauce for a dash of spice if you like. Many Italians add a few tablespoons of mayonnaise at the end.
Mediterranean Rice Salad with Vegetables
This colorful Mediterranean rice salad is a great summertime dish. I used fresh zucchini, carrots, and bell peppers, but you can add any vegetable you like. Replace rice with couscous, farro, or barley, if you prefer.
Mediterranean Quinoa Salad
An easy Mediterranean quinoa salad with feta and red onion that's lovely and light with bright lemon and fresh herb flavors. Add as much or as little lemon juice as you like. This salad is equally good warm or cold.
Rice Salad
This rice salad is a great summer salad in place of potato salad, or any time of year!
Quinoa Tabbouleh
We love this quinoa tabbouleh on a hot summer day. Quinoa has a much nicer taste than bulgur and it's gluten-free so everyone can enjoy this Middle Eastern salad. The longer you let the tabbouleh sit, the better it tastes.
