Directions
I thought this recipe of Jay Solomon's (from "150 Vegan Favorites") was just too good not to share.
Add wild rice to boiling water/broth and simmer until rice is tender, about 45 minutes to an hour.
Add well-rinsed quinoa to boiling water/broth and simmer until all liquid is absorbed. I forgot to notice how long this takes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the wild rice, quinoa, scallions, garlic, roasted peppers, vinegar, parsley, mustard, pepper and salt. This salad really tastes best room temperature.
In the original recipe, he calls for 1 teaspoon dried thyme, and fresh parsley rather than parsley flakes. I took it as written above to a dinner party of non-vegetarians, and had several requests for the recipe.
