→ Main Ingredients

01 - 1 cup wild rice blend
02 - 1 3/4 cup vegetable broth
03 - 1 tbsp butter
04 - 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
05 - 1 medium onion, diced
06 - 1/2 cup green peas, frozen or fresh
07 - 1 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
08 - 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, or 1 tsp dried thyme
09 - salt and pepper to taste

# Steps:

01 - Combine rice and vegetable broth in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, add salt to taste, and simmer with the lid on for 15-18 minutes or until the rice is tender and fluffy.
02 - Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30-40 seconds.
03 - Add diced onions and cook until translucent.
04 - Add sliced mushrooms, green peas, and thyme to the skillet. Sauté the mixture for 5-7 minutes, ensuring almost all the water released from the mushrooms has evaporated.
05 - Add the cooked rice to the skillet and gently mix with the mushroom and pea mixture. Adjust seasoning, if necessary, and serve warm as a side dish or light meal.
