On the menu: Hamburger Wild Rice Casserole, rolls, fresh fruit.
The casserole earns Mom's Tastes Like Your Foot's Asleep award.
It was poorly received by the locals, who pushed it around a little on their plates, after a bite, then slid it into the trash.
I personally thought it wasn't bad when doused in soy sauce.
Mr. DOA doesn't think it's as bad as " some of the things you guys come up with".
I think if broth was used instead of water, and maybe a few spices were added, this would be not a bad little meal. I've never worked with wild rice before, and I am not sure if it was supposed to be sort of rubbery/crunchy. I suspect not. I certainly gave it the full hour of soaking. Maybe it wants double that.
The fruit and bread were a nice accompaniment. I really like planning meals with multiple parts and things that lighten up heavier dishes. Also, if a new dish turns out to be blech, you have something else to eat.
