Lately today I realized that  I'm suppose to blog for Blog hop & I was searching for recipes which I could make it in no time. 

This time I'm paired with Rajani of "My Kitchen Trials" & I chose to make Rice Salad. Just to mention I was reading her blog for 2 to 3 hrs. The commentary she gave in some posts was very amusing & I just couldn't stop reading it.

Ingredients
