I'm not a huge fan of rice salad, but this one is really good. The lemon-herb dressing is the perfect balance of tangy and creamy.

I didn't have any fresh asparagus, so I used frozen asparagus instead. It worked out just fine.

I followed the recipe exactly and my salad turned out mushy. I think the rice was overcooked.
