Brown Rice Salad With Peppers And Zucchini

---

This is tangy and vegetable-loaded salad that i put together out of the pantry and frige. i enjoyed it enough to post it so that i can remember it again later.

---

Steps

---

Cook brown rice according to package directions and set aside to cool.

---

Chop vegetables and cheese and toss with cooled , cooked rice.

---

I use a mandoline slicer to get a variety of shapes and textures to my vegetables.

---

Use whatever vegetables appeal to you.

---

In a small jar make vinaigrette by mixing the salt , pepper , vinegar , mustard , garlic and oregano together and then adding the oil.

---

This will actually make more dressing than is needed for the salad , i think , but it is a solid vinaigrette that performs well on other salads.

---

Dress the salad to taste and serve immediately.

---

This salad can also enhanced by chicken , tuna or chopped egg.
