The hearty flavor of Wild Rice contributes as a high-fiber side dish to more rich dishes.
There are several methods for cooking Wild Rice. Use your favorite or try one of the methods listed.
Wild Rice is decorated with onions, beets, apples, dried fruit and nuts. You can enjoy the stuffing without the pumpkin, but baked up inside it creates a magical main entree. Choose a large pie pumpkin, a couple of smaller ones or another type of winter squash. We tested the recipe with about a 3 pounder. Adjust the stuffing accordingly, adding more ingredients as needed to fill your squash. If you are starting this recipe with uncooked rice, here is the recipe to cook up the wild rice blend.
Sweet, tangy and savory cranberry glaze is perfect drizzle across meat or even better the vegan Lentil Nut Loaf.
