Once the rice is cooked, everything else comes together in minutes. Just a little chopping, a quick whisk of the dressing, and you\u2019re ready to toss!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start by<strong>\u00a0cooking the brown rice\u00a0<\/strong>until tender with just the right chew. While it cools slightly,\u00a0<strong>toast the almonds\u00a0<\/strong>until golden and fragrant. We want that extra nuttiness that adds incredible depth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, and Dijon mustard to\u00a0<strong>make a bright, tangy dressing<\/strong>. Then in a large bowl, combine the rice, almonds, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, red onion, basil, and parsley.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pour over the dressing and\u00a0<strong>toss gently<\/strong>\u00a0until everything is well coated. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper, and serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Add shredded chicken (or chickpeas) if you\u2019d like to make it a little heartier.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>And that\u2019s it! A deliciously wholesome wholegrain salad that\u2019s as easy to make as it is to love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>You\u2019ll find the exact quantities in the printable recipe card below.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/ellerepublic.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Reissalat-Rezept-mediterran-Art-6-of-7-800x1200.jpg\" alt=\"Bowl of Italian rice salad featuring olives, sun-dried tomatoes, fresh herbs, red onion, and almonds\" class=\"wp-image-106244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ellerepublic.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Reissalat-Rezept-mediterran-Art-6-of-7-800x1200.jpg 800w, https:\/\/ellerepublic.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Reissalat-Rezept-mediterran-Art-6-of-7-216x324.jpg 216w, https:\/\/ellerepublic.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Reissalat-Rezept-mediterran-Art-6-of-7-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ellerepublic.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Reissalat-Rezept-mediterran-Art-6-of-7-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ellerepublic.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Reissalat-Rezept-mediterran-Art-6-of-7-696x1044.jpg 696w, https:\/\/ellerepublic.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Reissalat-Rezept-mediterran-Art-6-of-7.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why You\u2019ll Love This Italian Brown Rice Salad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find all the ingredients for this Italian rice salad at your local supermarket year-round, making it a delicious go-to no matter the season.
