SPROUTED WILD RICE WITH PISTACHIOS AND SPRING VEGETABLES

Steps:

• 1. Rinse the rice well, put it in a glass jar or bowl, and cover with fresh, pure water. Let soak on the countertop overnight.
• 2. In the morning, drain and rinse the rice; then cover it again with fresh water and put the jar in the fridge. Drain and rinse the rice at least twice per day for 2 to 3 days, until it has "bloomed"-some or all of the grains will have split open, and it should be tender enough to eat. Drain and rinse the sprouted rice and put it in a large bowl.
• 3. Whisk the olive oil, mustard, lemon zest and juice, and maple syrup together in a small bowl, adding a few pinches of sea salt. Pour half of the dressing over the rice and fold to coat. Stir the peas, chickpeas, carrots, and herbs into the rice.
• 4. In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pistachios until golden and fragrant, about 5 minutes (be careful not to burn them!). Add the toasted nuts to the salad. Pour the remaining dressing over and fold to combine.
• Serve.

• Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a small pot over medium heat. Add the rice and 1 tbsp each of basil and oregano. Stir for 1 minute and add the water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook until rice is tender, 30-45 minutes.
• While rice is cooking, chop the broccoli and cauliflower and drain the cans of green beans.
• In a large, deep pan over medium heat, add the rest of the oil. Once heated, add the garlic, stir until fragrant, then add the broccoli and cauliflower. Toss until they begin to soften, then add the can of tomatoes, juice and all, as well as the rest of the basil, oregano, salt and pepper. Toss well and loosely cover to let some of the steam out.
• Uncover every few minutes and stir until the vegetables are fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Next, add the green beans, toss well to combine, turn the heat down to low, and loosely cover until the rice is done.
• To serve, place only a few small spoonfuls of rice on a plate and cover with lots of vegetables.
