recipe reviews for:

Wild Rice and Squash Pilaf

“AS A graduate student, I'm always looking for fast, nutritious dishes that cost next to nothing to fix and have a minimum of cleanup. The pilaf is fantastic with fish or poultry and especially compatible with turkey. Since it's so colorful, I like to think it makes my turkey 'dressed for the holidays'. -Erica Ollmann, San Diego, California”

I really did not like this recipe. I used butternut squash and omitted the mushrooms (i didn't have any on hand) and the almonds (my husband doesn't like nuts in his food). I also added all ingredients in with the rice since it wasn't already cooked and let it cook together. What I didn't like about this was the taste of the squash with the other ingredients. I missed the sweet flavor that I normally enjoy with butternut. Maybe another kind of squash would have worked better..but i just felt like something was missing (besides the almonds and mushrooms..hehe)..

I've had a butternut squash just sitting here for weeks and was looking for a way to use it. I was so glad I used it for this recipe. It was absolutely delicious. I had all the ingredients on hand but the savory so I just left that out. I could eat this as a meal all by itself.

This gets 5 stars from me because I was looking for a simple recipe that would help me use up my leftovers of squash and wild rice from last night's dinner, and HERE IT WAS!!! It was easy to make, called for ingredients I already had on hand, and was delicious! The only change I made was adding a generous handful of dried cranberries because I didn't have green peppers. Great, simple recipe! Thanks for sharing!
