This wild rice salad recipe is a healthy and flavorful dish. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of wild rice with 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Cook for 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice with 1 cup of chopped vegetables, such as bell peppers, carrots, and celery. Add 1/4 cup of chopped herbs, such as parsley and basil. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard. Pour the dressing over the rice mixture and toss to combine. Serve at room temperature.
