Arugula, Wild Rice & Apricot Salad – Serves 4
Ingredients:
2/3 cups wild rice
1 bunch arugula
3-4 fresh apricots, sliced (nectarines, peaches, or plums would also work)
1 avocado, diced
1/2 bunch cilantro, roughly chopped
1/3 cup roasted unsalted almonds, roughly chopped
Dressing:
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons raw honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
salt to taste
Rinse the rice. Bring 2 1/2 cups water to a boil. Add the rice, then turn the heat down to a simmer, cover and cook until the water has been absorbed and the rice becomes tender, about 35-40 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly. Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk together all ingredients for the dressing, set aside. Place the wild rice, arugula, apricots, avocado, and cilantro in a large bowl, pour over the dressing and toss to combine. Toss in the almonds just before serving.
