Curried Rice Salad - egg, gluten, dairy, lactose free

It's always a good idea to have some different salad recipes coming in to Summer, rather than the simple green salad. This recipe is easy, light and tasty. It's low-fat and excellent served as a side dish or by itself for lunch. This is safe for Vegetarians, Vegans, egg, dairy, gluten and lactose intolerant diets.
