Ingredients: 1 Short grain brown rice 1 Long grain brown rice 1 Green (French) lentils 1 Red, yellow, green bell 2 Small cherry tomatoes 1 Or 2 carrots 1/4 Chopped fresh basil (more or 1 To 2 tablespoon or chopped |
Directions:
Cook grains separately, in 2 cups water, until done, 45 minutes or less.
For the dressing, I used a prepared nonfat tomato-herb dressing (Trader
Joe's) mixed about half and half with red wine vinegar because I generally
find prepared nonfat dressings too thick and too sweet for my taste. I
didn't measure, but I used perhaps half a cup, maybe as much as a cup,
total, just enough to moisten everything.
I let it sit in the refrigerator all day, to let the flavors mix. I don't
know how many people it served--it filled a large bowl-- but there wasn't
any left over after the potluck (and while I was glad that everyone liked
it, I was sorry not to have some to take home).
