Ingredients

Scale

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 tablespoons honey (strict vegans use agave nectar)

1 teaspoon dijon mustard

1 tablespoon water

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1/2 cup chopped broccoli

1/2 cup chopped red bell peppers

1/2 cup chopped yellow bell pepper

1 celery stalk, chopped

1 green onion, sliced (I used the white and green parts)

3/4 cup cooked black beans

2 cups Minute® Ready to Serve Rice Multi-grain Medley


Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together the first eight ingredients.  Set aside.  Place your chopped vegetables and beans into a container and coat with the prepared dressing.  Refrigerate overnight.

When you are ready to eat, prepare the Multi-Grain Medley according to package directions (microwave for one minute).

Pour half of the vegetable mixture into a bowl, making sure to include half of the dressing.  Add the rice blend and stir.  Save the other portion for the next day or share with a friend. 🙂 Enjoy!
