Seafood Rice Salad
- 1/2 cup uncooked rice
- 4 ounces canned tiny shrimp
- 5 ounces canned tuna in water
- 4 ounces canned whole button mushrooms
- 1 carrot, shredded
- 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Cook rice according to package directions or my way: In a small saucepan heat one tablespoon butter or oil over medium heat. Add rice and stir for 2-3 minutes or until grains change color from translucent to white and the fragrance is intensified (that's if you're using aromatic rice like Basmati or Jasmin).
- Add 1 cup water or vegetable stock (I always cook my rice with the 1:2 rice to water ratio). If you're using water, season with salt, about 1 teaspoon. Bring to a boil and lower the heat. Cover and simmer until rice is cooked and all liquid has been absorbed. Remove from heat and let cool.
- In a medium bowl combine all ingredients (drain the canned ingredients first), taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with lemon and egg wedges if desired. Enjoy!
