"Realsimpledotcom continues to provide me w/intriguing recipes. I esp like this one since it's a good yr-rd side-dish option (esp to accompany chicken), but is also well-suited for the holiday season w/it's use of cranberries. It could also easily be made into wild rice stuffing for those who favor that genre of holiday dressing. ENJOY!"
