Take this to a summer cookout. It feeds 12 and is an old favorite of mine. It fits in with most foods and looks impressive.

½ pound wild rice, cooked and drained
2 cup fresh peas, cooked and drained
5 green onions, thinly sliced
¾ cup Vinaigrette
1 T finely chopped tarragon or ¼ tsp dried and crumbled
¼ tsp sugars
