Sizzlin' Summer Salads: Asian Rice Salad

Hi Everyone!

Sorry it has taken me a while to get another salad recipe posted on here for you all, but life keeps me really busy!  Let's just say that I ALWAYS have a reason to get up out of bed in the morning! ;)    As promised, I wanted to share another of our new favorites.  This one is definitely going to be a "regular" in our menus.  My picture does not show it as yummy as it really is.  Hope you enjoy!

Asian Rice Salad

2 cups cooked brown rice
4 green onions, chopped
5 cups loosely packed chopped spinach
1 11-ounce can mandarin orange segments, drained
1 8-ounce can sliced water chestnuts, drained
1/4 c. fat free Kraft French dressing  (or fat free favorite of your choice)
1 T. soy sauce
1/2 cup avocado chunks

Place the rice in a large bowl.  Add the green onions and spinach.  Mix well.  Add the orange segments and water chestnuts.  Toss gently to mix.

Mix the dressing and soy sauce.  Pour over the salad.  Stir in the avocado.  Cover and chill for 1 hour before serving.  Do not make too far ahead as the salad will be come soggy.  Serves 4
