Chippewa Wild Rice

by: Lady Hawk Oh (LADYHAWK6)

Ingredients:
4 cups Already cooked Wild rice
2 cups cooked, cubed, Chicken breast (small pieces but no skin)
(beef, pork, turkey, or smoked sausage can be used too) 1 medium onion (diced & cooked)
2 stalks of celery (diced & cooked)
2 large carrots (thinly sliced round & cooked)
1 large green bell pepper (diced small & cooked)
1 large red bell peppers (diced small & cooked)
1 cup corn (cooked)
I somtimes add some chopped pecans (cooked or uncooked either way is delicious)


Note:
Lady Hawk also posted this message with the recipe:
some people add white or brown rice too to stretch the wild rice but I don't)
*** I always cook my wild rice in "chicken or beef broth" not water.
This gives it 10 times more flavor as the rice absorbs the broth
instead of water. The water seems to water down the nutty flavor
that wild rice has.

I've even used different veggies in this like broccoli and cauliflour but the ones above are my regulars.
This mixture is actually a nutritional complete meal as it has rice,
meat, and lots of veggies. This mixture is great to use in a cheese
omlet for breakfast too. Wonderful omlet!! This mixture is great to
turn into soup too. Just add some chicken or other type of broth and
you've got wild rice soup. It's delicious on top of buttered mashed
potatoes. I have even added a cup of it to stuffing mix and it makes wonderful stuffing, either inside or outside of the bird. Very versatile dish.
