Notes
- Fruits that are in season are a good substitute for apples. Pomegranate, oranges, blood oranges, grapefruit, and a lot more can give this cold wild rice salad recipe a new look and flavor profile.
- In a recipe that calls for dried cranberries, use dried tart cherries and raisins instead. Remember that the cherries will give more tartness, while the raisins will be sweeter.
- Add some tofu feta or vegan parmesan to make it savory and cheesy.
