This rice salad has so much flavor. I liked everything in it. I used red bell pepper instead of green. I used a can of small shrimps but next time I'll use fresh or frozen shrimps, cooked, cause these ones were so salty. This is great with the chinese noodles. Thanks Cadillacgirl :) Made for Count Dracula and His Hot Bites for ZWT7 -
Great salad - had to leave out the shrimp due to allergies but added lots of everything else. Made for ZWT 7. -
This was the surprise hit of the week! Really flavorful and tasty. I used cooked brown rice and frozen shrimp in place of the canned. I also did not use the Accent (it doesn't need it). I packed this for my DBF's lunch, and he was delighted. I definitely will be making this again! Made for ZWT7.

<p>I'm a brand new single mommy to my tiny perfect human, so thank you to everyone who takes the time to make and review my recipes - I try to send a zmail to each of you, but baby girl has a different idea.</p>
<p>I'm a good ol' prairie girl from Canada with one side of the family being Ukrainian/Slovakian and the other side is German/Russian. In other words, when we cook we take carbs, cover them in more carbs, fry'em and serve it smothered in onions and cream. <br />No pro chefs in my family, just grandmas and aunts and cousins and a mom that had me pinching perogies and stuffing strudel before I could form a complete sentence. <br />The most dreaded / laughed at phrase I say is, So last night, I invented this thing for supper... - I would probably publish more recipes if I actually remembered everything I put in or had an idea of how much I added!!</p>
