Notes

I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

Ingredients:

1 lb. pkg. wild rice, rinsed

1/2 cup mayonnaise

Preparation:

Cook wild rice as directed on package until tender (about 40-45 minutes) and drain if necessary. Cook orzo according to package directions, and drain well.

Meanwhile, in large bowl combine mayonnaise, yogurt, milk, mustard, and cheese. Mix until combined.

Add wild rice, orzo, black beans, peppers, chicken, black beans, and cooked wild rice and stir well. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
