Seasoned Wild Rice Cooked In A Rice Cooker Food

WILD RICE IN THE PRESSURE COOKER

Steps:

• Place water and rice in a pressure cooker and secure lid.
• Heat to high pressure over high heat; reduce heat to medium, but maintain pressure.
• Cook 30 minutes; remove from heat, release pressure, then remove lid and drain.

STUFFED PEPPERS WITH TOFU AND SEASONED WILD RICE (DAIRY FREE)

Steps:

• Remove the tops of the bell peppers and clean them out. Set aside.
• Keep the extra pieces from the top for another recipe.
• Have you rice ready at this point.
• In a large saute pan heat the coconut oil. Add the pressed tofu, garlic, garlic chives and oregano and cook on medium low. Saute for about 5 minutes. Add the wine and de-glaze the pan. I used a heavy stainless steel pan that things stick to, so the wine did the job perfectly. If you use a non-stick pan you can still add the wine or leave it out. Scrape the bits of tofu off the saute pan.
• Saute the garlic and tofu until the tofu turns light brown. Add the marinara sauce and saute for about 4-5 minutes.
• At this point you should turn the oven on to 350'F.
• Now get your prepared peppers. In the bottom of the pepper add some of the cooked rice. Pat it down. Divide the tofu tomato mixture up into each of the peppers. If you have room add more rice and then more sauce. Put 3 slices of tomato on top of the mixture. Top with the shredded vegan cheese.
• I put my peppers in a parchment lined 9x13" baking dish.
• Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven. The cheese should be nicely melted by then.
• Serve warm.
• Bon Appetit!

SEASONED BROWN & WILD RICE

Steps:

• In small bowl, blend all seasoning ingredients. Set aside.
• In medium saucepan, bring water to a boil.
• Add margarine, brown rice & wild rice, and reduce heat. Cover & simmer 30 minutes.
• Water should be about half absorbed and brown rice beginning to soften.
• Stir in seasoning mix. Simmer additional 20-30 minutes.
• Let sit, still covered, 10 minutes.
• Mix in fresh parsley and fluff with fork before serving.

RICE COOKER WILD RICE

Steps:

• Rub with butter or spray rice cooker pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Add water or stock, rice, and salt to taste.
• Cover and cook about 40- 50 minutes, or until rice is fluffy.
• Let stand 10 minutes more before serving.

SEASONED WILD RICE (COOKED IN A RICE COOKER)

Steps:

• Put the rice, chicken broth, coconut oil and Spike into the rice cooker. Give it a good stir.
• Turn on the rice cooker and let it cook the rice. I used coconut oil to prevent the rice from bubbling over. It works very well and I like that coconut oil doesn't go rancid like other oils when heated on a high temperature.
• When the rice is finished, lift the lid and fluff it up. Put the lid back on and let it sit for another 5-10 minutes before serving. This goes really good with a little Romano cheese on top.
• Bon Appetit!
