Wild Rice Casserole




Carlene Dater’s Wild Rice Casserole

1     cup wild rice
½     lb. fresh or 2 cans mushrooms
¾     cup butter
3     Tbsp. grated onion
3     cups chicken broth

Soak and wash rice 3 or 4 times in boiling water till rice opens up. Slice fresh mushrooms. Brown rice in butter; add remaining ingredients except broth. Put into buttered 2 ½ quart casserole. Add broth. Cover and bake at 350-F or 177-C for about 1 ½ or 2 hours. Takes a while, but well worth it.

What should have been a happy occasion quickly turns sour when the body of one of the Birthday Girls is discovered in her own swimming pool.
