Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup wild rice blend
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, tips cut off, discolored leaves removed and sliced in half
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries (or ⅓ cup dried cranberries, roughly chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon fine salt
  • ½ cup pecan halves, roughly chopped
  • ⅓ cup crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

  6. In a large bowl, combine warm cooked wild rice, roasted Brussels sprouts, cranberries, toasted pecans, and crumbled cheese. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and maple syrup.
  7. Toss gently to mix and coat all ingredients.
  8. Divide the mixture into serving bowls. Sprinkle with flaky salt and serve warm.
  9. Store leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
