Rice! White, brown, and even black rice, are all easy to cook. We have hot recipes, room temperature salads, weekday choices, and holiday side dishes from simple to exotic. We even have a “yellow” rice dish and a “green” one, as well as a wild rice recipe thrown in for good measure (PS: wild rice is a grass, not a rice, but we couldn’t resist).

Our Coconut Rice Salad with Pineapple & Herbs is good warm or at room temperature and works just as well as a side dish at dinnertime as it does as a main dish for lunch. Basmati rice is combined with toasted coconut and slivered almonds, diced fresh pineapple, red bell pepper, scallions and a flavor packed combo of fresh mint, cilantro and basil. Make sure to use uber-fresh herbs! The dressing is salty and tangy with umami flavor from the fish sauce, which is balanced by the lime juice. Get the recipe for Coconut Rice Salad with Pineapple & Herbs.

Forbidden Rice Salad with Sesame & Kale

Cilantro Lime Rice

I was going to call this Green Rice because while this version is for Cilantro Lime Rice, it is just as delicious – and green! – when made with parsley, which might be more enticing for some of you. Get the recipe for Cilantro Lime Rice.
