Nutty Wild Rice Dish

I made this for a potluck a couple weeks ago and it was amazing. I think it has a sort of umami (meat) taste to it.

I used a wild rice blend because it was a last minute decision and the grocery store only had a blend available.

Ingredients:
2 1/2 C water
1/2 C wild rice
1 TBSP soy sauce
6 green onions
1 TBSP earth balance
1/2 C sliced almonds, toasted
1/4 C sunflower kernels
3 TBSP sesame seeds
1/4 TSP salt

Directions:
In a large saucepan, bring the water, rice and soy sauce to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 45-60 minutes or until tender
Meanwhile, in a small skillet, saute onions in earth balance until tender. Stir in the remaining ingredients; heat through. Remove from heat. Drain rice if necessary. Stir in onion mixture.

Enjoy!!
