Salmon Rice Salad is made with flaked salmon chunks, brown rice, celery, hard-cooked eggs, parsley, chives and capers and is blended with a creamy dressing with the tang of fresh lemon
 

juice. It is a great salad for luncheons, dinners, picnics, and can be served as a side or main dish. Surprisingly, this salad can also be served with an assortment of crackers, pita chips, bagel chips, etc. as a quick dipping snack.

 

The photo above shows this salad resting on a bed of iceberg lettuce leaves and served with with sides ripe of avocado slices and lemon wedges which compliment this salad beautifully but are optional. The lemon wedges can be squeezed over the salad, adding a tart freshness, while the avocado slices simply taste wonderful with this salad.

 

Salmon Rice Salad is easy to put together.

The only cooking needed with this recipe is to hard-boil the eggs and cook the rice, which could not be simpler. While the rice and eggs are cooking, you can chop up your salad ingredients. Then simply toss and chill your salad in the refrigerator.  In a couple hours it is ready for its presentation!
