Wild About Rice Salad
A friend of mine moved to Arizona. She asked me for some recipes using wild rice because many of her new friends have never eaten it. The first recipe that came to my mind is the wild rice salad I am going to share with you today. It is one that was often requested by my coworkers when we would have birthday pot lucks at work. It is very unusual, different and good. It again comes from the recipe files of my friend Mary Reed.
Wild Rice Salad:
4 cups cooked wild rice (2 cups uncooked, rinse well before cooking)
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup cooking oil
2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
4 hard-boiled eggs, cubed
1/2 cup onion, chopped
4 stalks chopped celery
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tsp prepared mustard
Add sugar, oil, salt and pepper to cooked rice while warm. Cool slightly; add rest of ingredients, toss and chill. Serve on lettuce leaf.
Have a great week!
