Today’s casserole of Wild Rice, Orzo & Mushrooms is brought to you by the letters R, O & M! Seriously though, this earthy, flavourful, simple and hearty dish is truly a match made in heaven.
For those that have never tried it…wild rice tastes slightly nutty. It is very good (very good for you) and even better when cooked in broth. We made this recipe and much to my delight, everyone loved it. Rice & pasta together – what a concept!
