BRAZILIAN WILD RICE BLEND



Brazilian Wild Rice Blend image

I got this off a package of Lundberg gourmet whole grain rice mix. I have changed the recipe slightly. I think this would also be good with a little cumin added.

FRIED WILD BLEND RICE

This started with a traditional fried rice recipe but has changed over time to fit our Nutritarian eating style. I use Lundberg Wild Blend Rice for the dish but it will work with any cooked whole grain if you can't find Wild Blend Rice. You can reduce prep time by using jarred garlic, frozen vegetables and leftover rice. The cook time is 45 minutes to cook the rice but the dish goes together in 15 minutes if you use leftover rice.
