Note

For best results, ensure the rice is completely cooled before mixing it with the other ingredients to prevent sogginess.

If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of spicy seasoning mix or substitute with a standard all-purpose seasoning.

Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until fragrant to enhance their nutty flavor.

This salad can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 2 hours. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

For a heartier meal, add other vegetables such as cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, or bell peppers to the rice mixture.

Use leftover cooked rice for this recipe to save time. Ensure it is well-seasoned and fluffy.
