SOUTHWESTERN RICE
I created this colorful side dish after eating something similar at a restaurant. It complements any Tex-Mex meal wonderfully. Sometimes I add cubes of grilled chicken breast to the rice to make it a meal in itself. -Michelle Dennis, Clarks Hill, Indiana

This healthy salad has lots of taste and eye appeal. Add more or less jalapenos to suit your own heat preference. Most people like it this way and I serve some hot sauce on the side for the heat lovers.

SOUTHWESTERN RICE SALAD
Credited to Lundberg Family farms, from the book "The Color Code." Personally, I would use brown rice in this recipe for the health benefits. The other flavors are strong enough that it should not matter if you are used to white rice.

SOUTHWEST TURKEY & RICE SALAD
This is a perfect summertime main-course salad. Cool and refreshing, and you can make it up to a day ahead of time, so you don't have to prepare it during the heat of the day. It's also a good buffet dish, or picnic dish. It travels very well. This is one of my favorite summer meals.
