Description

Sausage, wild rice, pecans and cooking sherry mingle in a delightful blend of flavors. This was adapted from a recipe my mom used to make using eggplant, but the mushrooms add the necessary texture.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Cooked Brown And Wild Rice
  • 3 strips Bacon, Uncooked
  • 1 whole Onion, Chopped
  • 3 stalks Celery, Chopped
  • 4 ounces, weight Can Sliced Mushrooms, Drained
  • 1 pound Breakfast Sausage, Uncooked
  • ⅓ cups Cooking Sherry
  • 1 cup Pecan Pieces
  • 10 whole Pecan Halves For Garnish

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350.

Cook rice according to directions. If using a packaged rice mix, do not add seasoning packet.

Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet and reserve the drippings. Remove bacon and save for another use.

Saute the onion, celery, mushrooms, and sausage in the bacon drippings. Stir frequently to keep meat in small pieces (a potato masher works great).

Simmer about 20 minutes. Drain the grease.

Add cooked rice, sherry, and pecan pieces to sausage mixture and stir to coat.

Spray a 2-quart casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray, and spoon rice mixture into the dish.

Arrange 8-10 pecan halves on top for garnish. Bake uncovered at 350 for 30-35 minutes. Great with your favorite cranberry sauce!
