Ingredients:

For the rice:

1 cup dry wild rice

1 ¾ cup water or vegetable broth

For the dressing:

1 Tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

5 celery stalks, chopped

3 garlic cloves, minced

2 cups (8 oz package) white button mushrooms, roughly chopped

1 Teaspoon dried thyme

1 Tablespoon dried parsley

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon pepper

¼ cup vegetable broth

¾ cup raw pecans, toasted and chopped

1 cup NatureSweet® Constellation™ tomatoes, halved

Fresh parsley, for garnish, optional

Instructions:

Combine rice and 1 ¾ cup water or broth in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then cover the saucepan and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for about 30-35 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

Heat olive oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery, then cook until they begin to soften, and onion becomes translucent, about 4 minutes.

Add garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes.

Add mushrooms and sauté until they turn golden brown, about 6-8 more minutes.

Stir in thyme, parsley, salt, pepper, broth, and the cooked rice.

Remove from heat, then add pecans and Constellation™ tomatoes. Garnish with fresh herbs, such as parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
