FRENCH QUARTER RICE SALAD
This came out of a brand names cookbook. It is really delicious! The raisins add just a hint of sweetness that offsets the tang of the dressing. Prep time does not include refrigeration time. I always use chicken breast when making this salad, but the directions are not specific, so you could use dark meat if you prefer.

MOOSEWOOD FRENCH RICE SALAD
I got this from the New Recipes from Moosewood Restaurant back in the late 80's when I was a vegetarian and always looking for a way to use up my rice. This one is easy and tasty. I have taken liberties with the recipe...Chill time is listed under preparation time :)

Steps:
- Place the cooked rice in a large bowl. Steam the carrots, peppers, mushrooms and peas separately until tender but still firm (please don't overcook).
- Add the steamed vegetables, celery, and parsley to the rice. Whisk the olive oil, vegetable oil, lemon juice, garlic and herbs together. Pour the marinade over the vegetable rice mix and toss gently.
- Refrigerate until well chilled, stirring occasionally, so the marinade will flavor the rice.
- When ready to serve, garnish with tomato wedges and green olives along with any of the optional ingredients above.
- (Note: 1 have also topped with parmesan cheese but I have no idea how much I used - it was good!).

SALADE DE RIZ MADAME BEQUETTE(FRENCH RICE SALAD)
This comes from a community cookbook put out by the American Hospital of Paris. I have posted this for a request. The type of oil and vinegar is not specified in the original, although I have made some suggestions. Prep time assumes you are starting with already cooked rice. This might be an acquired taste for some, and it needs a good deal of seasoning, so please add as much salt, pepper, etc as you feel it needs. The original version called for Tabasco sauce instead of the Dijon mustard, however I really did not care for the Tabasco in this, plus the mustard seemed to fit a French salad more.
