Brown Rice Salad


I was sorting through the cabinets the other week to find old food stuffs that needed to get used up. One of the items was some brown rice we've had since we made some rice pilaf with it a couple of years ago. I wanted to do something more interesting with it than just cook it plain. I remembered that good old Alton Brown had done a show on rice with an interesting brown rice recipe so we went with that.

We didn't have high hopes for this recipe, we just figured it'd be good way to use up the rice that we had and besides it had bacon in it. We were pleasantly surprised that this dish was excellent! The method for cooking the rice was to bake in the oven, which resulted in a nice chewy, light rice. Then the bacon, onion and vinegar flavor mixture were a perfect seasoning. We're definitely going to make this again. (Also check out my new dotted bowl!)
