Notes
*For the Palmini Rice, be sure to rinse thoroughly and squeeze out all excess moisture with a dish towel. This improves the texture and enables the rice to absorb the delicious dressing and have the best flavor!
*If you want to use a more traditional grain option, you can substitute with 2 cups cooked white rice, quinoa or orzo
*For an oil-free option, roasted tahini is a delicious creamy option for preparing this dressing. If you are not looking for oil-free, you can use cold pressed olive oil, or even a combination of both!
