This salad was delicious! I used a mix of brown and white rice, and added some chopped avocado and black beans. It was the perfect meal for a hot summer day.

I've made this salad several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The dressing is light and flavorful, and the vegetables are fresh and crisp.
