Summer Xmas Salad

By Kira Constable

I love the summer holidays. Fresh mangoes, long summer BBQs, going to the beach, you name it! I also love fresh summer salads. This one is perfect as a side salad all through summer, or as an accompaniment to your star dish at a family + friends gathering! YUM!

Ingredients
Method

Summer Salad
2 cups cooked brown rice or any other grain - around 1/2 cup of uncooked brown rice (quinoa or farro is great too!)
Seeds from 1/2 a pomegranate
2 chopped spring onions
1/4 cup chopped parsley, rinsed
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves, rinsed
1/4 cup pistachios, shelled and unsalted
orange zest and juice from 1/4 of an orange
1/6 cup dried cranberries
1/6 cup olive oil
pinch of salt
crack of black pepper

Step 1In a large bowl, place your cooked brown rice, pomegranate seeds, spring onions, parley, basil, and pistachios in a bowl. Combine all ingredients together
Step 2In a separate bowl, make your citrus oil dressing by combining the orange zest, juice and olive oil together. Add in salt and pepper to taste. Shake or mix well.
Step 3Pour your dressing into the brown rice salad and toss well.
Step 4To serve, garnish with a few additional basil leaves. Keep any remaining leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Keeps up to 2 days. Note*: This salad is extremely versatile so don't be afraid to change up your grains and add additional veggies like lightly charred broccolli!
