Wild Rice

Wild ricing time in Mn on Platte Lake. Never done it, but hope to wet a paddle and a push pole this coming week, mostly out of curiousity. Need a partner. My ten year old daughter?
We have got to get the cream of mushroom soup out of the wild rice casseroles. My favorite is as a pilaf w/ plenty of onions, carrots, celery, mushrooms. What about beans and rice( green beans and rice?), or beans and rice as in red or black w/ some spice. Sweet works w/ wild w/ green onions, peppers, grapes - a fruit salsa stirred in w/ mayonnaise as I did at my restaurant. Sweet and hot?...which mnstns accept as a tolerable level of spice.as long as it is sweet.
Months since I have written. I'll let you know if I just do it.
