Savory Wild Rice

Source: What's Cooking in the Benton Sister's Kitchen Vol. 1

 

3 cups brown rice*

2 Tbsp. wild rice

6 cups water

2 Tbsp. parsley

2 Tbsp. basil

2 Tbsp. garlic

4 Tbsp. McKay's chicken style seasoning**

2 Tbsp. Italian seasoning

1/2 cup red bell pepper, diced

1/2 cup green bell pepper, diced

1/2 cup green onions, chopped

2 Tbsp. minced dry onions

 

*Dextrinizing rice or whole grains improves the flavor and shortens cooking time. Brown rice may be dextrinized by heating it in a dry skillet over moderately high heat for 3 - 5 minutes. Stir constantly until golden brown. Add water and seasonings; cover and let boil 10 minutes. Simmer on low for 40 minutes, covered. Add last 4 ingredients; cook an additional 5 minutes or until bell peppers are crisp-tender. Do not overcook!

 

**Use the vegan, no MSG version of McKay's.

***Studies show that brown rice that has been soaked in water for 24 hours begins the sprouting process and the nutritional benefits are greatly enhanced.
