Vday Menu!

My hubby to be and I decided that instead of fighting the crowds and going out to eat, we would stay in and make dinner together. Dustin made an absolutely delicious chicken. Mmmm it was great! I don't know the specifics of his recipe, but it involved lemons, mint, shallots, chicken and veggie broth. To compliment his fabulous roasted chicken I whipped up some wild rice pilaf. I bought brown wild rice at trader joe's (BUY THIS!IT'S GOOD!!!!). I sauteed some chopped celery, a little onion and mushrooms for a few mins. I added in 2 1/2 cups of veggie broth (bring to a boil) and 1 cup of the wild rice. Bring everything to a boil again, cover and then turn the heat down so that it simmers for 35 mins. Turn off heat and let it sit for an additional 10 mins until everything thickens up. This was really really good!
