Wild Rice Salad

I love Wild rice. I use that once or twice a week minimum to substitute for my regular rice. Actually I can eat plain also it is so good by itself. Almost like eating Sundal. I wanted to try it out for my salad with Cheese. It came out pretty good. It is very good option for dieters and whoever looking to have balanced diet. I have added Carrot and Peas you can add your favourite vegetables like Broccoli, Asparagus etc.. So Enjoy simple yet tasty dish.. This is definitely for some who doesn't want to spend much time in kitchen
