This is a family recipe that we make for all of our picnics. The salad is best if made a couple of hours, or even a day, ahead. It can be served warm, but is best served chilled. It is also very good with 2 c. chopped cooked chicken added. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do! Ingredients:
10 ounces chicken rice-a-roni |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 (6 ounce) jars marinated artichoke hearts, chopped, reserve liquid |
1/2 green bell pepper, diced |
4 green onions, chopped both white and green parts |
15 pimento-stuffed green olives, sliced thin |
1 tablespoon curry powder |
1/3 cup mayonnaise (hellmans works well for this recipe) |
Directions:
1. Cook Rice as directed on box, but brown using olive oil, instead of butter. 2. Mix Mayonnaise, curry powder and reserved marinade together, and set aside. 3. Combine cooked Rice-a-Roni, artichoke hearts, olives, green onions and bell pepper. 4. Pour mayonnaise mixture over rice mix. 5. Stir to coat. 6. Refrigerate until serving. 7. Enjoy! |
