Colourful brown rice salad
Ingredients
1 1/2 C brown rice
3 spring onions, finely chopped
3/4 C raisins
2 Tbsp chopped parsley
1 can corn kernels, drained
1 can chick peas, drained
1 medium grated carrot
3 sticks celery, finely chopped
Dressing: 1/2 C olive oil, 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, 2 tsp coconut sugar, 1 clove crushed garlic,
Directions
Cook brown rice as per instructions. Place in a bowl and add remaining ingredients, toss thoroughly before serving. To make the dressing, place all ingredients into a jar and shake well to blend. Pour dressing over and mix just before serving. Serves 6-8 as a side.
Tip for your ginger: Buy fresh ginger, peel it at home and put into the freezer. Frozen ginger is much easier to grate than fresh, and you’ll always have it on hand!
