Ingredients

• 1 package (8 oz) chicken flavoured, rice-vermicelli mixture
• 4 scallions, sliced
• 1/2 green pepper, chopped
• 12 medium stuffed olives, sliced
• 2 jars (6 oz each) marinated artichoke hearts
• 3/4 tsp curry powder
• 1/3 cup mayonnaise

Preparation

Step 1

1) Cook the rice mixture according to package directions. Be careful not to overcook or the rice will be too soft for a salad. Cool.

2) Combine in a serving bowl with the oniions, pepper, and olives. Drain the artichoke hearts and reserve the marinade. Cut the hearts in half and add to the rice mixture. Combine the marinade with the curry powder and mayonnaise, using a fork or wire whisk. Toss the dressing with the rice mixture, and chill.
