Instructions
1
Add a tablespoon of olive oil in a pot, and once it is hot, add the sliced clove of garlic. When it begins to lightly brown, add the rice. Stir it for a couple of minutes before adding the hot water with a pinch of salt. Cook over high heat for 7 minutes and then turn down the heat to low and cook for 8 more minutes. If in this time, it absorbed all of the water and is still hard, add more water. Let it sit for a little bit.
2
Chop the cucumber, onion, and red bell pepper.
3
Add the rice to the salad bowl and add the veggies you've just chopped as well. Add the drained corn and tuna.
4
You can dress the salad with some lemon, salt, and oil.
