Guest guest Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 This looked so yummy that I made it for lunch today, and it was wonderful. I didn't have black olives so I used green and I also added 1/2 of a peach that I had left over. I put the salad with lettuce in a pita bread and it was great. For the other 1/2 of the pita I added some veggie pate I had in the refrig. I spread on the inside of the pita. That was fabulous also. Thanks for this recipe and I'll type my veggie pate in the next post. Jane > This is my lunch today. I forgot about this rice salad recipe until I ran across it last week. Wonderful for a hot day.
