​Ingredients

• 1 cup organic wild rice blend
• 3 cups water
• 2 tsp. cumin powder
• 1 Tbsp. curry powder
• 1 can of organic garbanzo beans
• 1 medium onion
• 2 Tbsp. chopped organic fresh parsley
• 2 Tbsp. organic fresh cilantro
• 1 Tbsp. organic fresh dill
• Salt and fresh ground organic pepper to taste.

Directions
In a saucepan, bring the water to a boil.  Add the wild rice and cook on a low boil for about 40 minutes or until the rice is tender but still firm. While the rice is cooking, thinly slice the onion, caramelize it in a frying pan on medium/low heat and then set aside. Once the rice is cooked, drain the water and put the rice into a salad bowl. Drain and rinse the garbanzo beans and add them to the rice. Add the curry powder, cumin, fresh herbs, and caramelized onions to the rice and garbanzo beans. Mix good, adding salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.
