Wild Rice Stuffing with Apple & Seeds
I found this recipe on line and made a few alterations, but unfortunately I never recorded the original source. We send our collective thanks to the original cook! This was the first stuffing I served in our newly gluten-free home. I served it for Thanksgiving and it was a huge success!
Step 1:
½ Cup Organic Wild Rice
½ Cup Organic Brown Rice
2 Cups Water (alkaline if you’ve got it!)
1 TBSP Vegetable Oil (try Camelina or MCT oil for added nutrients)
Cook the rice in the water and oil. While the rice is cooking move onto the next step.
Step 2:
1 Stalk Organic Celery – chopped
4 Organic Green Onions – chopped
2 Cloves Organic Garlic – chopped
I just toss these all into my hand powered food processor – then sauté them in a little oil or butter, and set them aside to cool.
Step 3:
1 Organic (& Local!) Red Apple – peeled & diced
(then set aside in lemon water to prevent browning)
½ Cup Organic (& Local!) Dried Cranberries
½ Cup Organic Raisins
2TBSP Organic Lemon Zest
Combine the drained apple, cranberries, raisins, and lemon zest with the cooked onions, celery and garlic and set aside.
Step 4:
3TBSP freshly squeezed Organic Lemon Juice
½ tsp Himalayan Salt
1/3 Cup Organic, Cold Pressed Olive Oil
Freshly Ground Organic Black Pepper to taste
Wisk together & pour over the cooked rice.
Step 5:
Finally mix everything together and serve hot or cold.
Enjoy!
