Posted by Jeanne Topham (jtopham@bbn.com) ...

Last weekend I had a terrific rice dish that I'd never had before.  The
dinner was catered (the caterer dropped off everything, ready to be
heated), so I wasn't able to get the recipe.  It looks simple enough to
make, but I was hoping to cut down on the number of experiments at home
by asking if anyone has such a recipe or can point me in the direction
of a cookbook which might have something similar.

It had long grain wild rice, little pieces of onion and green pepper,
bulgur, pine nuts, and seemed to have butter or oil - just enough to
hold stuff together (not in clumps) and give a slightly shiny
appearance to the pine nuts and all.

Is this familiar to anyone?  Please post the recipe if possible;
otherwise when my experiments are successful, I'll let you know what I
came up with.  I'm hoping that perhaps this dish is from Minnesota -
I've had "Minnesota Long Grain Wild Rice" brand and that's exactly the
way the rice in this dish looked.

Thanks for the help!
