While wild rice is not considered completely raw, it is a great transitioning food.
- 3 cups wild rice, soaked
- 1 cup yams, diced finely
- 1 red pepper, chopped
- 1 green onion, minced
- 1/2 cup raisins (soaked 4-6 hours)
- juice of a lemon
- 5 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp nama shoyu (or tamari*)
- dash of cayenne
In a large bowl add the wild rice, then add each ingredient individually and mix. Season to taste. Ideal for lunchboxes on the run.
