I LOVE this salad! Not only does it taste yummy... it's extremely EASY!! The best of both worlds!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

We've had chilled pasta salad before but never had a chilled rice salad. It's now a new favorite! This salad is light and fresh. We enjoyed the tangy vinegar flavor. It pairs well with the fresh taste of the basil. Serve as a side dish or a main dish. This basil tomato salad is delicious.
