Can use 1/2 brown rice and 1/2 wild rice
1. In a strainer, rinse wild rice under cool running water. Drain well.
2. In 3-qt. saucepan, bring rice and chicken broth to a boil over high heat.
3. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 45-50 minutes or until rice is tender. Drain excess liquid and set rice aside.
NOTE: Can use Gulf Pacific Gourmet Brown and Wild Rice Blend (from HEB). Use 1.5 cups of rice blend and 3 cups of chicken broth. No need to add butter or salt. Simmer 20-30 mintues until rice is done.

5. Add cashews and green onions to pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until nuts begin to brown. Remove from heat.
6. In large bowl, gently stir together rice and vegetable/nut mixture.
