Artichoke-Rice Salad is a chilled rice salad flavored with curry powder. With a mayonnaise base, it is a little creamy with chunks of marinated artichoke hearts and water chestnuts, plus sliced green onions and green olives.
You could serve it warm, but I think it tastes best served chilled.
Make it a few hours or even a day in advance and Artichoke-Rice Salad makes the perfect potluck or picnic addition.
You can even add diced chicken to it and make it a full meal.
Lots of times, an Artichoke-Rice Salad of this nature will start with a box of Rice-A-Roni. I typically just use white rice since I always have it on hand, but I cook the rice in chicken broth for a little extra flavor.
I didn’t add any, but toasted almonds would also be delicious in this salad and maybe even a little crumbled feta cheese. 🙂

My mom used to make this. Love the mild curry and crunchy water chestnuts. It’s a great recipe for marinated artichoke hearts.
A favorite my mom made in the 70’s
Happy to find the recipe ❤️
It is very retro isn’t it? Enjoy!
I love rice based salads like this! And I definitely love that you used water chestnuts in here! They are a favorite of mine!
What a perfect summer salad! Love the idea of adding some feta!
This is such a creative salad, Christin! I would’ve never thought to make a salad with rice as the base. Love the zesty ingredients in here!
Yummy! Except the olives 🙂
Toasted almonds and feta would be great additions, but this salad looks delicious without them, too 🙂 love it!
