  1. Really wonderful! This combines three of my favorite ingredients (wild rice, sudried tomatoes and garlic) without adding too much of any others, so it is easy, flavorful and I can almost smell the delicious flavours:) I am cooking this tomorrow!

  2. The addition of the sundried tomatoes to the rice, should make all the difference in the flavor of this dish. Must try it.
