#ad Took my favorite flavor combo and turned it into the easiest summer salad. Fluffy Hinode Low GI White Rice hinoderice white beans, cherry tomatoes, and arugula all tossed in a lemony basil vinaigrette that’s super fresh and herby. It’s light but filling, and honestly, I could eat this on repeat all week. Perfect for when it’s too hot to cook but you still want something that feels like a real meal. Enjoy!
