Wild Rice Salad from Mary M.

Mary doesn't have permission to print this, so I'll see what I can do
about changing it up so we don't run into copyright issues.

First, pick your rice. As the name implies, you can use wild rice,
but I find most rices are mixed with wild rice, and that's perfectly
alright. Remember, it's a 2-1 ration: liquid to rice.

Dice some red pepper or Fire roasted red pepper or pimentos.
Dice some fruit, like apricots or mangos. Chop some pecans or walnuts.
lightly steam some fresh peas (ok you can just thaw some frozen ones).

When the rice is finished, stir in the fruit, veggies and nuts.
Toss with the zest and juice of one orange, a little olive oil
and some fresh chopped parsley. Salt and Pepper to taste.

This can be served chilled or room temp. Great to take to a
pot luck dinner! Enjoy, and thank you Mary for the wonderful recipe.
