What's New

The package made more than I'd expected so I divied it up.

1/2 of the TJ rice stuff mixed with chopped cherry tomatoes, garlic and red onion, both minced, some of last year's frozen basil, a squeeze of lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil. Based on L's recipe--except I added crumbled goat cheese because we have it.

I also tried a variation on a 90's salad standard: the other half of the rice with dried cranberries (TJ's orange flavored in fact) and toasted walnuts (I wanted almonds) and sesame-based salad dressing (I'm lucky enough to have some Krazy Kazu's) If we'd had oranges, I maybe put some chopped bits in. But we don't. And if I had any more minced red onion, I'd put that in too, but it's gone. And maybe as an homage to the original recipe, I'd add little strips of spinach--if we had any.

Yum. I bet they'll be better tomorrow.
