Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ cups water
1 (6 ounce) package long grain and wild rice mix (such as Uncle Ben's®)

This salad was a bit too time-consuming to make for a weeknight dinner. I think I'll save it for a weekend project.

I found this salad to be a bit too oily. I think I would reduce the amount of olive oil next time.
