Rice and Fruit Salad

This is a great recipe for when it’s just too hot to cook. If you are taking this dish to a potluck dinner, wait until you arrive to add the fresh fruit. It will not have to be heated or refrigerated.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of cooked long grain rice
  • 2 Tablespoons of olive oil
  • 2 Tablespoons of orange juice
  • 1 Tablespoon of vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons of chopped shallots
  • ¼ teaspoon of salt
  • ¼ teaspoon of pepper
  • 1 cup of chopped fresh peach
  • ¾ cup of fresh blueberries
  • ¾ cup of fresh strawberries
  • 3 Tablespoons of toasted almonds

Directions:

Heat a small, dry skillet, add almonds and stir until toasted. Whisk together the oil, juice, vinegar, shallots, salt and pepper. Add the almonds, cooked rice, peach and berries and toss gently.
