Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked wild rice
  • 1 cup soft bread crumbs (1 1/2 slices)
  • 1/3 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 jar (2 1/2 ounces) mushroom pieces and stems, drained and finely chopped
  • 1 jar (2 ounces) diced pimientos
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps

  • 1
    Mix all ingredients except oil.
  • 2
    Heat oil in 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Scoop wild rice mixture by 1/3 cupfuls into skillet; flatten to 1/2 inch. Cook about 6 minutes, turning once, until light brown. Remove patties from skillet. Cover and keep warm while cooking remaining patties.

  • Native to North America, wild rice is really not a rice but rather the grainlike seed of an aquatic grass. One cup of uncooked wild rice will give you about 4 cups cooked.
  • Concerned about cholesterol? Use 1/2 cup of a fat-free egg product instead of the eggs for cholesterol-free patties.
  • Leftover patties get a makeover when you serve them in sandwich buns with cranberry sauce.
