Brown & Wild Rice With Nuts

Ron Pratt aka RRP

Ingredients

• 1 Box Uncle Ben"s Brown and Wild Rice Mushroom Recipe - see below

• &#189 Cup slivered almonds

• &#189 Cup either chopped walnuts or chopped pecans

• &#189 Cup onions

• &#189 Cup celery

• 1.5 Cup dried cherries

Instructions

Cook the Uncle Ben's according to package directions. You may have difficulty finding the &#034Brown and Wild Rice Mushroom Recipe&#034 which is one of their six offerings. I have made it with just the &#034Original&#034 and while it is great, the &#034brown and wild&#034 is far superior in this dish. I even had to have a buddy ship me 8 boxes from Texas where it is made!
Cook the almonds and nuts in a skillet with a two or three pats of margarine over a medium heat until brown. Be careful not to burn them.
add onions, celery and cook until tender - may need more margarine
add the cooked Uncle Ben's and the dried cherries and stir quite thoroughly
Transfer to a baking dish, spread evenly and top with several pats of real butter

Bake covered for 15 to 20 minutes at 325°

Enjoy!
