keto 'wild rice' with mushrooms, roasted squash & herbed chicken (grainless)

this wild rice (minus the rice) is so creamy, slightly crunchy and every bit as flavorful as you would ever want it to be. plus, it comes together in a few short minutes.

hemp seeds are high in protein and good fats that will energize and sustain you for hours. 

so if you are attempting to eat keto, or just avoiding grains, this is a great, satisfying dish. and a little goes a long way.

for the rice:

1 c hemp seeds

2 T ghee or coconut oil

1 c sliced mushrooms

1/4 c chopped raw almonds

1/2 c bone broth

1 t garlic powder

1 t dried parsley

s + p to taste

-in a medium pan, add ghee and heat until bubbling. then add mushrooms and almonds and cook a few minutes until mushrooms are soft. add all other ingredients and mix well. bring to a boil, then simmer until liquid is absorbed.

i served mine with roasted butternut squash and chicken breasts rubbed with herbs and roasted until done. it was delicious! this rice dish would also go lovely with fish or steamed greens.
