1 1/2 C. wild rice
1 C. quinoa, rinsed
1/2 C. extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 C. fruity vinegar (raspberry, pomegranate, sweet balsamic in a pinch)
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper
1-2 C. halved, pitted fresh sweet cherries
4 stalks celery, diced
1 C. diced aged goat cheese, smoked cheddar, or other smoky cheese
1 C. chopped pecans, toasted
1) Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add wild rice and cook for 30 minutes.
2) Add quinoa and cook until the rice and quinoa are tender, about 15 minutes more.
3) Drain and rinse with cold water until cool to the touch. Drain well.
4) Meanwhile, whisk oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and toss to combine.
5) Serve at room temperature or cold.
NOTE: This can be made ahead and covered and refrigerated for up to 4 hours.
On our elimination diet, iivo and EL can't have vinegars or any sweeteners but stevia, so I will use stevia-sweetened lime juice instead of fruity vinegar. I will also omit the pepper (EL can't have) and add some APB instead. Our goat cheese will not be aged, and I will maybe do half as many cherries.
I'll let you know how these modifications were!
