SPRING RICE SALAD WITH LEMON-DILL DRESSING



Spring Rice Salad With Lemon-dill Dressing image

Fresh, delicious and real quick side dish for spring! Lemon and dill are one of my favorite combos. Other veggies work well in this too, such as broccoli, fennel, snow peas, zucchini, etc. Pick your favorites! Fresh dill is best but you could try substituting dried. I like to serve this at around room temperature but it can also be served warmer or cooler. Use up to 1/2 cup oil but I like to make this lower fat. Adapted from a Williams-Sonoma cookbook.

13 GRAIN SALADS TO PREP ON SUNDAY AND EAT ALL WEEK …

  • Farro Salad with Roasted Eggplant, Caramelized Onion, and Pine Nuts. Caramelized onions add sweetness to this Mediterranean-inspired grain salad that’s made extra fragrant, thanks to lots of chopped fresh mint.
  • Yotam Ottolenghi’s Roast Chicken & 3-Rice Salad. This colorful rice salad calls for shiso, a unique herb that’s part of the mint family but tastes mildly like cumin and cilantro.
  • Spring Grain Salad with Asparagus & Meyer Lemon. While this recipe calls for a mix of farro and Israeli couscous, you can use just about any grain you’d like to make this tangy, crunchy salad.
  • Tabbouleh Salad with Bulgur, Quinoa, or Cracked Wheat. Tabbouleh is a classic Middle Eastern salad that’s most commonly seen made with bulgur, but if you’d like to add some protein to it, feel free to use quinoa instead.
  • Grain Salad with Tomatoes, Corn, and Basil. This salad is wonderful made in the peak of summer when there’s an abundance of fresh corn and juicy tomatoes, but it’s also quite tasty made with frozen corn and grocery store tomatoes, so don’t hesitate to make it whenever the craving hits.
  • Warm Bulgur and Lentil Salad with Roasted Shrimp. Go ahead and make a double batch of the bulgur and lentil salad, as it makes for a hearty, protein- and fiber-filled lunch, even when served without the roasted shrimp.
  • Grain Salad with Mango, Sprouts & Creamy Avocado Dressing. The avocado dressing in this recipe is made extra creamy with the help of Greek yogurt, giving it a jolt of protein at the same time.
  • Quick Balsamic Quinoa Salad. This simple grain salad comes together in a matter of minutes, especially if you start with pre-cooked quinoa. Keep some in your freezer to make it extra easy on yourself.
  • Brown Rice Salad with Apples, Walnuts, and Cherries. Green beans and chopped chives add a pop of color and boost the savory factor of this fruit- and nut-packed grain salad.
  • Warm Beet and Farro Salad. While this salad is incredibly comforting when served warm, it’s not any less satisfying when served at room temperature or cold, so pack up those leftovers for lunch!

  • Heat a heavy-bottomed pan over high heat. Spray with a mist of olive oil spray and let it get hot. Trim tough ends off of asparagus and chop into one-inch pieces so that you have 225 grams of good asparagus. Add to the hot pan with a good pinch of kosher salt and cracked pepper. Cook for just two minutes, stirring a few times.
  • Add one cup of frozen peas to the hot pan and toss with the asparagus for just about 30 seconds. Turn off the heat. This should be good enough to thaw your peas. Pour into a large bowl.
  • Add cooked brown rice, sliced radishes, fresh herbs, and parmesan to your asparagus mixture. Toss well. Zest one lemon right into your bowl, then slice it in half to juice it. (I like to squeeze mine into a small bowl and then pour it into my salad through a finely slotted spoon to catch the seeds.) Add salt and pepper. Taste and add more to your liking!
  • Enjoy! Great as a simple side salad, or of course bulked up with chicken and added greens to make it a meal!
