2 teaspoons canola oil |
1 package (6 ounces) long grain and wild rice mix |
2-1/3 cups water |
1-1/2 cups frozen corn |
1 green onions, thinly sliced |
1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped |
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley |
2 tablespoons orange juice |
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, saute onion in oil until tender. Add rice mix with contents of seasoning packet and water; bring to a boil.
