Nutty Wild Rice Salad image

Wild rice is sensational in this chilled salad. The toasted almonds complement the nuttiness of the rice, while red wine vinegar and soy sauce make a tangy dressing. I'll often serve the salad in lettuce cups, and sometimes I'll add diced ham and asparagus to turn it into a main-dish salad.

This salad was easy to make and so delicious! I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken to save time, and it worked perfectly. The dressing was also very flavorful.
