Cold Rice Salad

I used to make this with chicken. You can if you want. I don't anymore. This is best made in the morning so it can be nice and cold for dinner. I usually like it best on day two, so make it ahead of time if you want.

Lots of crunchy raw veggies (radishes, cucumbers, carrots, celery, peppers, etc.) chopped up. Throw in a green onion if you like them. Mix veggies in with a few cups of brown rice (amount determined by how much your family will eat for dinner), and few spoonfuls of mayo (to taste), a generous amount of fresh squeezed lemon juice (at the least one lemon), a sprinkle of garlic powder, a few grinds of pepper, salt to taste. Sometimes I also add peas. Sometimes I don't.
Easy and delicious.
