- In a medium bowl, combine the cooked long grain brown rice and wild rice with lemon juice. Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon. Be careful not to press on the rice as doing so will affect the texture.
- In a large salad bowl, toss the rice mixture together with chopped parsley, green onions, celery, red bell pepper, and cabbage until well-combined.
- In a separate small bowl, slowly whisk red wine vinegar and Dijon mustard together until combined.
- Continue whisking the vinegar and mustard mixture and slowly drizzle in olive oil until the dressing thickens slightly.
- Add some salt and pepper into the dressing until you get your desired taste. Whisk again to combine the mixture.
- Drizzle the dressing generously over the salad mix and toss until salad is covered thoroughly and evenly.
- Chill in refrigerator if desired or serve immediately.
- Toss again lightly before serving.
