3/4 cup of wild rice 3/4 cup of brown rice 3 cups of water 1 tablespoon of oil 1/2 teaspoon of salt 6 ounce jar of marinated artichoke 1 red pepper (sweet); cored 1 medium carrot; very thinly sliced |

Dressing 2/3 cup of olive oil 3 tablespoons of red wine vinegar 1 teaspoon of Dijon-style mustard 1 garlic clove, minced 1/2 teaspoon of poultry seasoning 1 teaspoon of thyme 1/4 teaspoon of basil 1/4 teaspoon of oregano 1/2 teaspoon of salt Pepper to taste 1 small head leaf lettuce; washed
Rinse the wild rice in a strainer under cold running water. Put in a medium size-bowl and pour on boiling water to cover. Let soak for 30 minutes, then drain thoroughly. Rinse the brown rice in a strainer and put in a medium-size saucepan along with the drained wild rice, 3 cups of water, oil and salt. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until all of the liquid is absorbed, about 45 minutes. Do not stir rice at any time. When done, put in a large bowl and chill until very cold, about 2 hours. When the rice is cold add the artichoke, pepper, scallions and carrot, and toss well. To make the marinade combine all of the dressing ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake vigorously. Pour over the salad and toss well. Chill for 2 hours or up to 24 hours. To serve, arrange equal portions of lettuce on 4 large plates and mound on the rice salad.
