Gluten Free Recipe: Basil Tomato Rice Salad

I was recently introduced to the Riceinfo.com, and noticed they have some great gluten free recipes.  For the next three Friday's, Gluten Free Edmonton will be featuring the top three gluten free recipes from Riceinfo.com.  Try them on the weekend!

Basil Tomato Rice Salad
Juicy tomatoes, fresh basil and crisp cucumbers burst with flavour in this refreshing summer salad. Rice adds unique texture and substance while absorbing the intense flavours of the cider vinegar and red onions.
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh basil leaves*
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 3 cups cooked U.S. rice, cooled to room temperature
  • 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
  • 1 small red onion, chopped
Whisk together oil, vinegar, basil, salt and pepper in large bowl. Add rice, tomatoes, cucumber and onion; toss. Serve chilled.

*Substitute 1 tsp (5 mL) dried basil for fresh.

Makes 6 servings.
