When you need something tasty, simple and that you can make for a crowd, this is your go to. Stretch it for miles and miles. Perfect for any occasion.

Brown rice adds so many great qualities to a salad. In fact, this recipe idea started with white rice but I had run out and so subbed in brown. Luckily, it has a nuttiness and a slightly chewy texture that is just delicious. We paired it with Jerk Chicken and lemon wedges but you can serve it with just about anything requiring a fragrant side dish. Dinner is served!
