mushroom & sausage wild rice w/pecans & raisins
I use Minute Rice in this recipe. I found that it holds its shape better during prolonged cooking than regular long-grain rice. Serve this over a little Sauteed Spinach for a quick supper. Just put this on to cook in the morning before you go to work and it's ready for you for lunch.
