WILD RICE AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH PILAF
Steps:
- Put the rices in a pot add the broth, and bring to a boil. Once the liquid is boiling, turn down the heat to low, cover the pot and cook the rice until tender, about 30-40 minutes. Drain the rice and set aside. While the rice is cooking, heat the butter in a large fry pan and add the onions, celery, carrots, garlic and spices. Saute until tender. Preheat the oven to 350. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-13 baker. Mix the rice, sauted vegetables and all the remaining ingredients together in a large bowl and transfer the pilaf to the baker. Bake, covered, for ½ hour. Remove the foil and bake another half hour until the squash is tender. Serve.
