While this recipe can be done on a stovetop with extra attention to each ingredient it is totally unnecessary. Go ahead and prepare other dishes as the slow cooker turns our wild rice blend into an unforgettable side dish. The nutty crunch of wild rice mixed with chewy brown and red rice combines into a complex, hearty blend that pairs well with proteins and vegetables.
