Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup olive oil, divided
2 cups brown basmati rice, rinsed and drained
1 cup wild rice, rinsed and drained
6 cups vegetable stock
1 tsp salt
2 cups green onions, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups celery, diced
1 tbsp garlic, minced
2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried sage
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped
1/3 cup dried apricot, finely diced
1/3 cup freshly chopped parsley
1 1/2 tbsp tamari
1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper

Directions:

In a large saucepan, heat 2 T olive oil.
Add the basmati and wild rice, stir well to coat the rices with the oil, and saute for 5 minutes while stirring constantly.
Add the vegetable stock and salt, and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 40 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat, leave covered, and set aside for 5 minutes to allow the rice to steam.
Meanwhile, in a large non-stick skillet, saute the green onion and celery in the remaining 2 T olive oil for 5-7 minutes or until soft.
Add the garlic and dried herbs, and saute an additional 2 minutes.
Add the dried cranberries, chopped pecans, and dried apricots, and saute an additional 2 minutes.
Add the reserved rices, along with the remaining ingredients, stir well to combine, and continue to cook an additional 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed.
Transfer the rice blend to a large bowl for service.
