Instructions

Rinse ¾ cup dry wild rice in a bowl and gently rinse a few times with cold water until the water runs clear. Alternatively, you can rinse the wild rice in a strainer. In a medium saucepan, bring the wild rice and 2 cups of water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 20-25 minutes (or until tender). Remove from heat and cover with a lid for 5-10 minutes, then fluff with a fork. Set aside to cool.
Mix the remaining salad ingredients (except for the salad greens – set those aside) in a large bowl and stir in the cooked wild rice once it has cooled. In a small bowl, whisk together the salad dressing ingredients until well combined. Pour half of the dressing into the salad mixture and gently stir to combine.
Add a handful of greens to a serving bowl and spoon the salad mixture on top; drizzle with remaining dressing and garnish with sunflower seeds.

Serves 6-8
