Posted on 06. Jun, 2009 by admin in Uncategorized

“A friend of mine showed me the basic recipe for this salad. I have experimented with many different herbs, and so far it’s been a hit every time. I have used salad burnet, lemon balm, garlic chives, and dill for variety.”
INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

* 3/4 cup uncooked instant rice
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
* 3 green onions with tops, thinly sliced
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
* 2 eggs
* 3 tablespoons olive oil
* 3 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
* salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS

1. Prepare the instant rice according to package directions.
2. Place the eggs in a saucepan with enough cold water to cover. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover, and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from water, cool, peel and chop.
3. In a bowl, mix the cooked rice, tarragon, green onions, chives, olive oil, and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, and chill at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. Toss with the chopped eggs to serve.
