Recipe Idea - Curried Brown Rice Salad

This is a great healthy lunch or light dinner idea. We had this today, and yum! It's kinda sweet and pretty spicy. Next time I think I will try adding a bit of shredded coconut to switch it up a bit. Here's the recipe:

INGREDIENTS

• 4 cups cooked brown rice, cooled (I used brown/wild rice blend)
  
• 1 cup chopped unpeeled tart apple
• 1/2 cup raisins (I used Craisins)
  
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted (I used cashews)
  
• 1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup fat-free plain yogurt
• 3 teaspoons curry powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

In a large bowl, combine the rice, apple, raisins, onion and almonds. In another bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour over rice mixture and stir to combine. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
