Description
This salad is a healthy and filling dish that is studded with fresh vegetables. It gets its vibrant green color from green bell pepper, peas, and scallions, all of which also add a ton of flavor. Try this dish with a roasted chicken breast or a piece of grilled steak for a complete and filling meal or add a spoonful over a lightly dressed green salad for a healthy and light lunch.

I love making and eating rice because it is easy to make. However, I tried this recipe in order to add a little flavor to my original style rice. This was a great recipe and I greatly enjoyed all the vegetables in it. I will be making this 4 star recipe again.
