Found a couple of heirloom squash on sale at the market and was deciding what to do with them. Going through the cupboard I found a package of Trader Joe's brown rice / wild rice mix. Had some shiitake mushrooms and, voila! - an idea for dinner was born. I re-hydrated the mushrooms and then used that water to cook the rice in. To the rice I added the slivered mushrooms, 1/4 tea of garlic powder, 1/4 tea of salt, 1/4 tea of pepper and a good splash of left over chardonnay that's been taunting me from the fridge. (Hey, if I can't drink it, I might as well cook with it). Simmered and added to the cooked squash halves. Result? Awesomeness! Can't wait to do that again.
