00:00This episode of Salads That Aren't Salads is a crispy rice salad with peas, cucumber, avocado,
00:05feta, fresh herbs, and a lemon vinaigrette. For the crispy rice, I'm using U.S. grown long grain
00:10white rice. It comes out perfectly crispy and also makes this recipe gluten-free. Bake it in the oven
00:15at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes and then assemble your salad using avocado and cucumbers
00:21as the base along with the crispy rice and then top with diced red onion, feta, peas, fresh chopped
00:27basil, and mint and then drizzle with a simple Dijon lemon vinaigrette and that's it. It's
00:33refreshing and delicious. Full recipe's in the caption. Give it a try.
