Curried Rice and Artichoke Salad image

This is a family recipe that we make for all of our picnics. The salad is best if made a couple of hours, or even a day, ahead. It can be served warm, but is best served chilled. It is also very good with 2 c. chopped cooked chicken added. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do!
