I followed the directions exactly as stated, except that I let the rice cool before adding the other ingredients. It was delicious and wasn't sticky, clumpy or mushy. I'll be making this again.

Wow! I found this recipe and whipped it up at the last minute. Boy, was I impressed. This is really yummy. I omitted the celery since I did not have any but did not miss it. I did not have any premade balsamic dressing so I made some using a Good Seasons garlic and herb packet and balsamic vinegar. I can't wait to make this again. Thanks for the recipe.

Oh my gosh ! My family LOVED this recipe. My husband, my 4 year old son, 7 year old daughter and I really loved every bite of this recipe. I did not have balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing. So I used 1/4 cup balsamic vinager and 1/4 cup fat free italian dressing. The taste was magnificent. I will make again !!!!!!!

With a good, sweet dressing, this is a pretty good salad. If your vinaigrette is savory instead of sweet, I don't think it would be as good. I used a brown-wild rice blend because it looked more festive, but brown would taste good, too, I'm sure.

My husband and I loved this. He packs a lunch every day, and this is perfect for hot summer days, when a sandwich is just too much. Better even the second day, or make it early in the day for that night. A definite keeper.

It was ok. I added some chopped carrots to the mix. Definitely must eat right away-- not very good as left overs because the rice seems to get mushy after a day. Will make again.

Delicious, and tastes even better the second day! Chill for at least a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. I sometimes substitute instant brown rice and it comes out fine.
