One Pan Mushroom, Pomegranate & Feta Wild Rice is an easy, gluten-free recipe that works as a hearty main dish or a flavorful side dish. To be honest, this recipe came about one meal prep Sunday when we were looking for a meatless dish to prep.
We didn't want to run out to the store to spend money, so instead we worked with what we had on hand and, well, the rest is in the recipe 😉 The flavors came together so well that we knew we had to share this with you!
Who could resist the chewy texture of wild rice, the heartiness of criminology mushrooms, a bit of sweetness from pomegranate seeds, savory chives and a salty finish with goat cheese? Um, definitely not us!
You can serve this gluten-free, vegetarian dish as a full meal or, for our meat eating friends, serve along side some cooked chicken or even toss leftover diced chicken right in! You could also opt to add in beans or tofu for extra plant-based protein.
