Directions:
- Cook rice according to package directions, substituting broth for water.
- Once rice is finished - while still warm, mix with green onions (to wilt them a little), a squeeze of lemon juice, and dressing.
- After cooled, add in the rest of the veggies & sprinkle with bacon bits (and nuts, if using). Toss well.
- Let set in the fridge for a few hours before serving so the flavors can meld together. Best if settled overnight. The longer the salad rests, the better it is!
- Serve on top of a bed of lettuce & garnish with fresh parsley and ground pepper.
- *(Salt can be added, although I've found that the bacon bits and Italian dressing are enough for us!).
- *Red peppers, sliced mushrooms, cucumbers, grape tomatoes, frozen thawed peas or the sugar snap variety, raisins, mandarin oranges, and toasted pecans or almonds would make great additions to this salad. I prefer the original, but add whatever you like!
