Brown Rice and Grilled Vegetable Salad image

A wonderful light summer salad of nutty brown rice, grilled vegetables and a light lemon dressing. Makes a great BBQ or potluck dish. I like to make a big bowl for lunches during the week. A great way to use up leftovers from dinner!

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning.

This salad was a bit too expensive to make. I think there are cheaper recipes out there that are just as good.

The grilled vegetables were a bit too charred for my taste. I would recommend grilling them for a shorter amount of time.

The dressing was too oily for my liking. I would recommend using less olive oil.

I'm not a huge fan of brown rice, but this salad changed my mind. The grilled vegetables and dressing were so good that I didn't even notice the brown rice.

This salad was a great way to use up some leftover grilled vegetables. I added some feta cheese and olives to the salad and it was even better! The dressing was also really tasty.

This brown rice and grilled vegetable salad was a hit at our last potluck! Everyone loved the flavorful combination of grilled veggies and the fluffy brown rice. The dressing was also a perfect complement, adding a tangy and slightly sweet flavor.
