Ingredients

  • 1 cup wild rice, washed

  • 2 cups vegetable broth

  • 1/3 cup toasted, chopped pecans

  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries

  • 3/4 cup chopped dried apricots

  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion

  • 1/4 cup lime juice

  • 2 Tbsp. agave nectar

  • 1 1/2 tsp. grated fresh ginger

  • 1 tsp. grated lime peel

  • 6 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • 1 cup blueberries

Directions

  • Combine the rice with the vegetable broth and enough water to cover by 1 inch in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the rice is tender, about 40 minutes. Let cool. Stir in the pecans, cranberries, apricots, and red onion. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, agave nectar, ginger, and lime peel. Gradually whisk in the olive oil. Season with the salt and pepper.
  • Pour over the rice and mix well. Gently fold in the blueberries. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
