Spicy Brown Rice Salad

Submitted by renjack

"This is a vegan/vegetarian recipe and is great at Barbecues. You don't have to use Kidney beans, Borlotti or Cannelini are also really good in this, you can also add carrots if you wish, but these take longer to cook. I have questimated the amount of chilli sauce, you need to aim to have enough liquid in the mix to coat the rice, you can always add more if need be."
