This past weekend we went to a potluck with the other Resident Associates at Caltech. We brought along a batch of the oatmeal bananna bread I wrote about a while back (Drew added walnuts and chocolate chips this time so it was more of a dessert). We also wanted to try something new so we whipped out our trusty Cook's Encyclopedia of Vegetarian Cooking (by Linda Fraser) and made a batch of the Fruity Rice Salad found on Page 74. It combined yellow bell pepper, tomato, apricots, raisins, green apples, scallions, wild and brown rice for the salad and topped it with a sherry / apple juice / soy sauce / spice (light) dressing. It was good. Drew's critique was that it was "nice and fresh" and we both thought it would make for a nice light lunch or dinner (and as we had leftovers- it did!).
Leave a comment if you would like me to send you the recipe and I would be glad to do so.
Sunday (Easter) after church, Drew, Maxwell and I took a nice hike in Silver Lake. Here are some pictures from our adventure:
