Is it just me, or is stuffing the best part of Thanksgiving? Of course, it's better when slathered in gravy and cranberry sauce to make it festive, but I could eat this on any night and feel like a king. It took me a few tries to get it right, but this recipe is a keeper. I love wild rice because it has a chewy texture. It makes it super satisfying to me. My favorite thing about this recipe is that you will harness the power of the crock pot. It means you are hands off, and also it frees up precious oven space. If you are hosting a holiday yourself, or going to someone’s house, I loooove the idea of using the crock pot. All you need is an outlet and you will be able to keep this dish warm.

  1. This recipe calls for just wild rice but in the picture it looks like a rice blend was used with only a little bit of wild rice. What kind of rice should be used exactly? Also, can this be made with the crock pot on high and if so, how long should it cook. I am not familiar with using crock pots.

  2. I plan on making this for Rosh Hashana next week (9/22/2017) and have a few questions. How many servings does the wild rice stuffing make? What size crockpot did you use?
