Andalusian Salad

1/3 c thinly sliced radish
1 c finely sliced celery
2 TBS finely chopped parsley
1/3 c chopped scallion (or green onions)
2 c steamed brown or white rice
1/2 c raisins
1/2 c sunflower seeds
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp coarsely ground pepper
1/2 tsp sugar
1 1/2 TBS red wine vinegar
6 TBS olive oil
1/4 lb mushrooms, finely sliced
1 head butter lettuce
parsley for garnish

In bowl, combine radish, celery, parsley, scallions, rice, raisins and sunflower seeds. Set aside. In a separate bowl or in a jar with tight-fitting lid, mix salt and pepper, sugar and vinegar; blend until salt and sugar are dissolved. Add oil and stir or shake well. Pour enough dressing over vegetable mixture to moisten. Chill for at least 30 minutes. Just before serving, add mushrooms and toss. Arrange on lettuce leaves on individual plates or in a bowl. Garnish with parsley.
