rice salad
Cold grain dish
Rice salad is a cold dish of cooked rice mixed with vegetables, herbs, and dressing.
Unlike warm rice dishes, the rice is chilled before combining with ingredients like tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, or olives.
It's a common picnic and potluck item: I brought a Mediterranean rice salad to the cookout.
