About Rice salad with cherry tomatoes

Rice Salad with Cherry Tomatoes is a vibrant and refreshing dish often associated with Mediterranean cuisine. This salad combines fluffy cooked rice with juicy cherry tomatoes, fresh basil, olive oil, and a hint of lemon juice, creating a balance of bright flavors. Optional ingredients like cucumbers, olives, or feta cheese can add texture and depth. Rich in fiber and vitamins from the tomatoes and basil, the dish is also a source of healthy carbohydrates. Olive oil contributes heart-healthy fats, while the lemon juice offers a boost of vitamin C. Pairing it with protein-rich items like grilled chicken or chickpeas can make it a well-rounded meal. While it is relatively low-calorie, portions should be mindful due to the carb content from the rice. Perfect for a light lunch or a picnic, this salad is both nutritious and satisfying.
