Ingredients
Salad
1 cup of wild rice
2½ to 3 cups water
pinch of sea salt
1 bunch of asparagus, cut into ½-inch segments
1 red bell pepper, diced
Dressing
½ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
1 bunch scallions
Instructions
Place the rice,
water, and sea salt into a pot. Cover and bring
to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer
for 50-55 minutes. Remove from heat and let
stand at least 30 minutes to cool.
Bring a saucepan
full of water to a boil. Salt the water and add
asparagus. Cook for just a minute – until the
asparagus is just bright and tender. Drain and
run under cold water to stop the cooking.
In a large bowl,
combine the wild rice, asparagus, pepper,
scallions, oil, and lemon juice. Toss well and
serve. |
