Recipe Information
Category: Side Dishes Recipe Created By: Kristin J

2  cups  rice, cooked & cooled
1  medium  baked chicken breast, diced
1/3  stalk  celery (including leaves), diced
1/3  cup  dried cranberries
1/4  cup  diced red bell peppers (optional)
    zest & juice from one orange
1/4  cup  rice vinegar
1/4  cup  canola oil
3  tsp  sugar (optional)
1  tsp  dried mustard powder (optional)
  to taste  salt & pepper

In a medium bowl, combine the canola oil, vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt & pepper. Add the orange zest & juice, celery and peppers and stir. Add the chicken and rice and mix well. Stir in the cranberries, then refrigerate until ready to serve.

This makes a really good breakfast, since it’s fruity but still has protein in it. You could also omit the chicken & make it a vegetarian meal.
