• Directions 1. Preheat oven to 425 degree F. 2. Bring 1-1/3 cups water to a boil with brown rice in a 3-quart saucepan. Lower heat and simmer rice, covered, until tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer rice to a bowl. Clean saucepan and add wild rice with enough water to cover by 3 inches. Boil rice, uncovered, until tender, about 40 minutes.

WILD RICE AND MUSHROOM PILAF

• When rice is finished cooking, toss mushroom mixture with rice and serve while hot.
• Special note: The recipe originally says to drain the rice. I've never had any extra liquid to drain, but I use a different rice as well. To make the recipe easier for me I bought a rice mixture at my store called "Royal Blend". I highly recommend it since it contains Texmati white, brown, wild, and red rice. This might be the reason no draining is necessary. If you are able to find this rice and buy it, use 1 1/2 cups of it instead of the 3/4 cup of both rice.
