TURKEY AND WILD RICE SALAD

Turkey and Wild Rice Salad image

I often make a wild rice salad for Thanksgiving; with leftover turkey, it lasts for several days afterward. It's one of my favorite post-Thanksgiving meals. If you have other vegetables on hand, add them to the salad, too.

Time 1h

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

3 1/2 cups turkey or chicken stock, or water
Salt
1 cup wild rice
2 cups shredded or diced turkey
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
6 mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, or a mixture of parsley and herbs such as tarragon, dill, marjoram and chives
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds (optional)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar or champagne vinegar
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 small garlic clove, finely minced or pureed
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons walnut oil

Steps:

In a medium saucepan, bring 3 1/2 cups of the stock or water to boil. Add salt to taste and the wild rice. When the water returns to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 40 to 45 minutes until the rice is tender and has begun to splay. Taste the rice to make sure it's tender; if so, drain and transfer to a large bowl. Add the remaining salad ingredients, except the pomegranate seeds.
While the rice is cooking, make the dressing. Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, salt to taste, mustard and garlic. Whisk in the oils, taste and adjust seasonings. Toss with the warm rice and the remaining salad ingredients. Arrange the pomegranate seeds on top, and serve.

PIQUANT TURKEY-WILD RICE SALAD (NO MAYO)

Piquant Turkey-Wild Rice Salad (No Mayo) image

Here's a healthy recipe for turkey salad. I like it because the sodium content is fairly low. If you, too, are trying to reduce sodium, be sure to read the label on the mustard as there is considerable variability in sodium levels between brands. I admit that I prefer a mixture of breast meat and dark meat, but stick to breast meat if you want the lowest fat content. Sometimes I substitute raw snow peas, trimmed and halved, or cooked frozen peas for the beans (snow peas add crunch). Use a good quality balsamic vinegar and olive oil. You can use left-overs for the grains. Preparation time does not include the time it takes to cook the grains which can be up to 3/4 hour.
