Wild Rice Salad with Many Colors


Today I left school early; I felt weird. When I got home, I couldn't just sit and relax, so I decided to cook. I made various things, including this simple salad. It is light and seasonal. Something to bring some color into your life when the clouds outside are grey and heavy with snow...

POMEGRANATE WILD RICE SALAD
This simple salad incorporates the exotic flavors of pomegranate, jicama & lime juice to create an flavorful, colorful dish. Makes 1-2 servings.

  • 2 cups of cooked wild rice
  • ¾ cup pomegranate arils
  • ½ a raw jicama, roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp. lime juice
  • 1/8 tsp. chili powder
  • salt & pepper, to taste

Stir the wild rice, lime juice, and spices together. Add the jicama & green onions. Gently stir in the pomegranate arils last. Store in the refrigerator.

What a yummy and colorful salad. My mom always told me that my plate should be colorful (something about it being healthy :D). I hope you feel better!

Wow! Great recipe! This sounds amazing! I love Jicama, but can never find it anywhere. I got to get some next time I am at Whole Foods. Thanks again for the great idea!

Your salad is so beautiful. I wish I could get my hands on some jicima over here in Belgium. I haven't seen one since I left Toronto. Beautiful post!

Love the action shots! And the pom masacre (with the knife). Bright salads make me happy.
