I made this salad for a picnic last weekend and it was a hit! Everyone loved it. I especially liked the dressing. It was tangy and flavorful, but not too heavy.

This salad was delicious and easy to make! I used brown rice instead of wild rice, and it turned out great. I also added some chopped celery and red onion for extra crunch. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
