I followed the directions exactly as stated, except that I let the rice cool before adding the other ingredients. It was delicious and wasn't sticky, clumpy or mushy. I'll be making this again.

Oh my gosh ! My family LOVED this recipe. My husband, my 4 year old son, 7 year old daughter and I really loved every bite of this recipe. I did not have balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing. So I used 1/4 cup balsamic vinager and 1/4 cup fat free italian dressing. The taste was magnificent. I will make again !!!!!!!
