SEASONED LONG GRAIN & WILD RICE MIX- UNCLE BEN'S STYLE
I found this on southernfoods.about.com and hope to try it soon. If it turns out well the first time that I make it, I don't see any reason why you couldn't make up a few ziplock bags including the rice for storage.

SEASONED WILD RICE (COOKED IN A RICE COOKER)
I love wild rice. It has such wonderful nutty flavor. I made this in my rice cooker and it came out perfect. The rice cooker cook book suggested 6 cups of liquid, but I only added 5 and I like the texture with less.

Steps:
- Put the rice, chicken broth, coconut oil and Spike into the rice cooker. Give it a good stir.
- Turn on the rice cooker and let it cook the rice. I used coconut oil to prevent the rice from bubbling over. It works very well and I like that coconut oil doesn't go rancid like other oils when heated on a high temperature.
- When the rice is finished, lift the lid and fluff it up. Put the lid back on and let it sit for another 5-10 minutes before serving. This goes really good with a little Romano cheese on top.
- Bon Appetit!
