Cooking Steps

Cook wild rice
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • In a medium pot, stir together wild rice medley, 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. 
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for 20-22 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep and make slaw
2
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice green onion.
  • To a medium bowl, add 2 tsp (4 tsp) vinegar and 2 tsp (4 tsp) oil. (TIP: Add 1/4 tsp [1/2 tsp] sugar, if desired.)
  • Season with salt and pepper, then whisk until combined.
  • Add cabbage, then toss to combine.
Char corn
3
  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • While the pan heats, pat corn dry with paper towels.
  • When hot, add corn to the dry pan. Cook for 5 min, stirring occasionally, until dark brown in spots.
  • Add half the Mexican Seasoning. Cook for 15 sec, stirring often, until fragrant.
  • To the medium bowl with slaw, add corn, then toss to combine.
  • Carefully wipe the pan clean.
Cook plant-based protein shreds
4
  • Return the same pan to medium-high.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then protein shreds. Cook for 6-8 min, tossing occasionally, until cooked through.**
  • Add Tex-Mex paste, remaining Mexican Seasoning and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water.
  • Cook for 30 sec-1 min, stirring often, until fragrant and no longer watery.
  • Season with pepper.
Make crema
5
  • To a small bowl, add sour cream, remaining vinegar and 1 tsp (2 tsp) water.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Add half the green onions to the pot with wild rice medley, then fluff with a fork.
  • Divide wild rice medley between bowls. Top with slaw and protein shreds.
  • Sprinkle feta and remaining green onions over top.
  • Dollop crema over bowls.

If you've opted to get plant-based protein shreds, prep and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook turkey, tossing occasionally for 6-8 min, until cooked through.**
