I have been eating this salad non-stop since I made it. It is so delicious. It's also really pretty. My husband does the South Beach diet, and so this dish is perfect with its whole grain rice, veggies and nuts. I cut the spinach into thin ribbons and stirred it into the salad,which I prefer to whole leaves. I also used pineapple chutney b/c I couldn't find mango chutney in the store, and it tastes great. I also used red onion instead of green. I don't think I used 8 cups of rice, though. I like a lot of sauce/dressing and add ins and was concerned the rice would overpower the dish. So I used maybe even half of what is called for here. The mixture of sweet and heat plus the crunch of the nuts is really wonderful. Don't leave out any ingredient. They all mix together to make a fabulous dish. I also like the fact that it's different and not the same-old/same-old. I will definitely bring this to picnics all summer.
