This is a perfect way to use leftover rice. Feel free to alter the ratio of veggies to your liking.
1 1/2 c cooked grains, chilled or room temperature (like brown rice, bulgur, barley, etc)
3 roma cucumbers, diced
1 medium cucumber, seeded and diced
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
1/4 c parsley or mint, chopped
juice of 1 lemon, freshly squeezed
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
2. Enjoy as is or over chopped romaine.
Makes 4-6 servings. Store leftovers in tupperware in the fridge.
To get the best value out of this dish, buy what's on sale/ in season. EG: substitute roma tomatoes for hothouse, cherry, grape; exchange cucumber for other veggies like green beans, chopped broccoli, asparagus (boil and blanched if desired).
