Ingredient Spotlight–Wild Rice

Thanks for joining us this week for Ingredient Spotlight.  Last week featured PUMPKIN!  If you missed it, you can find all the delicious links right here. 

This week, we’re focusing on Wild Rice.  This nutty and rich rice is a staple at our house, but may not be overly familiar to you if you are not from the Upper Midwest.  If the only “wild rice” you’ve enjoyed is Rice-a-Roni or Uncle Ben’s Pilaf, try one of these recipes using wild rice. 

Wild Rice is high in fiber, protein, folate, iron, potassium and zinc.  And, it’s delicious too.
