Recipe - Cookie And Candy Snack Mix

1/3 cup Wild Rice
1 cup Water
1 Bacon Strip; Thick, Lean
1 teaspoon Butter; Unsalted

Put the wild rice and water in a small sauce pan.
Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a bare simmer, cover
and cook until the rice is tender, 1 to 1 One fourth hours. While the rice is
cooking, saute the bacon until golden brown and crisp, then drain on a
paper towel. Cut the bacon crosswise into thin julienne strips and set

melted; season to taste with salt and pepper. Just before serving, toss the
rice with the bacon strips. Makes 1 cup
