I took this recipe from a Pillsbury magazine, the kind you buy at the checkout (the photo is theirs as well). I have had it clipped to the side of my fridge with the other receipes I've been meaning to make it for a long time, and finally got a chance last night.
I had to leave for a showing before dinner was ready, so as I headed out the door, I kind of shrugged at Cory and said, "It'll be done in 15 minutes. There are frozen pizzas in the freezer if it's no good." Forty five minutes later, I got this text, "Dinner was a HIT. There's some left for you, but only a little." Ah, super. Blogworthy (and timely - just before leftover-Thanksgiving-turkey season). Here it is; enjoy!

1 c cooked wild rice
