  • 2 medium avocados, diced
  • 1/2 English cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 small red onion, very thinly sliced

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground sumac

Instructions

  1. Cook the brown rice according to package directions or using your preferred method. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl or sealed jar, whisk or shake together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, sea salt, black pepper, cumin, and sumac until emulsified.
