COOL CUCUMBER AND RICE SALAD
From the Chicago Tribune, as adapted from Deborah Madison's "The New Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone". I have not tried this yet, but it sounds refreshing and just the thing for a potluck.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook rice until tender, drain, and briefly rinse with cool water. Spread on a kitchen towel, cover with another towel, and gently pat dry.
- Meanwhile, put the cucumbers, parsley, dill and mint in a large bowl.
- Combine the onions, salt, vinegar and oil to make the dressing.
- While the rice is still warm, stir it into the cucumber mix, adding the dressing and the yogurt. Toss gently with a wide spatula. Taste for salt and pepper.
- Serve tepid or chilled on lettuce leaves.
- Note: I made this without the yogurt, as I had none, and it tasted great without it, too. You might want to stir yogurt to loosen it, to facilitate incorporating it into the salad. I think any number of herbs would taste good in this, so use what you have available. I added some lemon balm.
