  • 1 small red bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, drained, cut into fourths

Lemon Vinaigrette

  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped

    In medium bowl, mix rice and remaining salad ingredients. In small bowl, mix all vinaigrette ingredients with wire whisk until blended. Add to salad; toss to mix. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours until chilled.

  • For a subtle flavor boost, try using jasmine or basmati rice instead of regular long-grain rice.
  • Two lemons will give you all of the peel and juice that you’ll need for the vinaigrette.
