INSTRUCTIONS
Variation from the original: I substituted fatfree Italian salad dressing for the olive oil and eliminated the spanish olives and the roasted walnut garnish. In a mixing bowl, combine the drained beans with the rice, and celery. In a small bowl, whisk together all of the dressing ingredients. Pour the dressing over the beans and rice mixture, and stir thoroughly. Top with the cilantro or parsley.
