Refrigerate dressing until ready to use.
SALAD

Add rice and stir contents well.
Reduce heat to low setting and allow rice to simmer for 45 minutes. Using a strainer or collander, drain water from rice.
Using a large bowl, combine rice, artichokes, peas, green and red peppers, onions, tomatoes, (if using) reserved marinade, and half of dressing. Stir ingredients together and toss to thoroughly combine and mix well.
Cover salad and chill for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to blend.
Just prior to serving, toss salad to freshen and blend all ingredients. Taste and add remaining dressing if desired.
Garnish with almonds and serve.
