The most time-consuming aspect of this recipe is cooking the wild rice. If you are short on time, you can cook the rice a day or two ahead of time.
Servings: 4
Yield: 8 cups (1.9L)
6 cups (1.4L) water
1 cup (200g) wild rice, uncooked
1/2 lb (230g) smoked turkey breast, diced

2 Tbs (30mL) fresh lemon juice
1 Tbs (15mL) olive oil

2 tsp (10g) Dijon mustard
1 tsp (5mL) Worcestershire sauce
