Esther Conrad of Overland Park, Kansas tossed together this satisfying salad starring rice and other healthy ingredients such as spinach, almonds and oranges. A little citrus makes this a fruitful change of pace from plain lettuce and dressing, she confirms. Ingredients:
1/3 cup orange juice |
1/4 cup reduced-fat italian salad dressing |
1 tablespoon grated orange peel |
2 teaspoons honey |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
4 cups cooked rice |
2 cups torn fresh spinach |
2 small navel oranges, peeled and sectioned |
1 celery rib, chopped |
1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the orange juice, Italian dressing, orange peel, honey and salt. Add rice; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Just before serving, add the spinach, oranges, celery and almonds; toss to coat. Yield: 8 servings. |
