So, I think Bart and Lisa were wrong, you do win friends with salad! You would definitely win more friends though with a better name than 'salad'.
A delicious salad recipe, using ingredients I had in the fridge - broccoli, red capsicum - just in time for warm summer nights :-)
1 cup brown rice & 2 cups water
1 red capsicum, chopped
2 cups broccoli, chopped
1 cup beans, tailed
1 big tomato, chopped or handful cherry tomatoes
Small handful of Parsley & dill (or whatever you have)
1 tbsp lemon juice
Cook up brown rice in a pot. Boil and then simmer for 40 - 45 mins until rice is cooked.
Cook broccoli and beans for a few minutes in a pot of boiling water until just softening.
Throw the capsicum and tomato into a frypan with a little oil and cook until soft.
You can heat the salad or serve it cold.
Yoghurt sauce.
1/2 cup greek yoghurt (I use Chobani 2%)
1/4 cucumber
1 clove garlic
Lemon rind and 1 - 3 tbsp lemon juice
Chop the cucumber and garlic finely.
Mix with greek yoghurt and add in lemon juice and rind to desired taste.
Serve on top of salad.
