Brown and Wild Rice Salad
This wild rice salad, developed by the Light & Tasty Test Kitchen, is twice as nice since it stars both brown and wild rice! Tangy raspberry vinegar complements the nutty flavor of the rice, while dried cranberries provide unexpected bursts of sweetness.

Love this salad. It does take longer to make when you use regular brown rice, so I try to plan ahead and make brown rice earlier in the week with a meal. I make sure to cook enough to have leftover brown rice for this tasty salad. One change I made is to use bottled raspberry pecan vinaigrette because I had it in the frig from another recipe.
I like this and so did other adults at our gathering, but it's not appealing to kids so I probably won't make it again for many years.
I was hoping my family would like this since it is certainly a healthy one. But, none of us really cared for it. Everyone agreed it was just "okay," but no one wanted it to be a repeat at our house.
Delicious salad. I made only one change, cutting the salt in half.
It's wonderful! It does take longer and is more healthy if you use long cooking rice! The instant or semi instant has lost some of the nutrients when in process!
This recipe is a winner! I teach cooking classes and more importantly nutrition classes - this meets all of our requirements. But best of all - everyone who samples this salad wants the recipe.Thanks so much,Nancy Carmichael,Boston Bar, BC, Canada
