Greek Rice Salad

I’m such a sucker for a good side dish, and this Greek rice salad really hits the spot. In my younger years I was a vegetarian (9 years!) and even still we veer off into the vegetarian side of things every so often. There are only so many green salads to make, and having a good variety of sides is always a win in my book.

This Greek rice salad is a perfect compliment to a nice roasted chicken or barbecued meat and in my opinion goes especially well with anything cooked in this Korean barbecue sauce.
