Very pretty salad. I'm thinking of adding a few dried cranberries for a pop of color. I really enjoyed. I'm always trying to find a good lunch item. Everyone wanted to know what I was eating!!!! I love the sesame oil. It really flavors the rice. Only problem I had was finding the rice!!!! 8-) Will make this again. Husband even commented on how flavorful it was.
