With the scorching summer beating down on us, my husband and I were craving a light, fresh salad that would be hearty enough to be the main dish. This salad fits that bill perfectly! The wild rice gives a wonderful chewy, nutty texture to the dish while the fresh vegetables and herbs make sure that you taste summer in every bite! <br /> Tarragon happens to be one of my favorite herbs and once I realized how aromatic the stems were, I decided to throw them into the pot to extract every last bit of goodness out of them! I would highly recommend letting the salad sit for a bit before you dig into it – the tarragon flavor was much more pronounced after the flavors had melded for a couple of hours. <br />Since I was cooking for my vegetarian husband, I couldn’t add any meat, but some roasted, shredded chicken would a great addition to this dish! Try it sometime! <br />
