This delicious salad with arugula and pear can be topped with leftover chicken, shrimp or legumes for added protein. Toss with a store-bought vinaigrette.
Step 1
Microwave rice medley according to package directions.
Step 2
Toss together rice medley, arugula, pear, pumpkin seeds and vinaigrette until well combined.
To easily toast raw pumpkin seeds, microwave on a microwave-safe plate, uncovered, on High for about 1 minute or until fragrant and toasted. Let cool completely before using.
Substitute citrus vinaigrette for lemon-honey vinaigrette if preferred.
