Preparation
1
Cook wild rice

  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • In a medium pot, stir together wild rice medley, 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. 
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for 20-22 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.

2
Prep and make slaw

  • Meanwhile, thinly slice green onion.
  • To a medium bowl, add 2 tsp (4 tsp) vinegar and 2 tsp (4 tsp) oil. (TIP: Add 1/4 tsp [1/2 tsp] sugar, if desired.)
  • Season with salt and pepper, then whisk until combined.
  • Add cabbage, then toss to combine.

3
Char corn

  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • While the pan heats, pat corn dry with paper towels.
  • When hot, add corn to the dry pan. Cook for 5 min, stirring occasionally, until dark brown in spots.
  • Add half the Mexican Seasoning. Cook for 15 sec, stirring often, until fragrant.
  • To the medium bowl with slaw, add corn, then toss to combine.
  • Carefully wipe the pan clean.

4
Cook beef

  • Return the same pan to medium-high.
  • When the pan is hot, add beef to dry pan. Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Add Tex-Mex paste, remaining Mexican Seasoning and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water.
  • Cook for 30 sec-1 min, stirring often, until fragrant and no longer watery.
  • Season with pepper.

5
Make crema

  • To a small bowl, add sour cream, remaining vinegar and 1 tsp (2 tsp) water.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

6
Finish and serve

  • Add half the green onions to the pot with wild rice medley, then fluff with a fork.
  • Divide wild rice medley between bowls. Top with slaw and beef.
  • Sprinkle feta and remaining green onions over top.
  • Dollop crema over bowls.

7

If you've opted to get beef, omit oil, then add beef to the dry pan. Cook beef in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the turkey.**
