You know when you cook way too much rice and it just sits in the fridge, lonely and forgotten? Yeah, let’s not do that anymore.
This vegan crispy rice salad boasts some truly amazing texture, mildly spicy flavors, and fresh veggies. It’s a healthy meal that doesn’t taste like a punishment to eat. You might think of it like bibimbap crispy rice salad meets Laotian appetizer-style salad, but with a little extra crunch. And it’s crazy easy to make. You can even use up leftover rice for this recipe. (In fact, it’s preferred!)
