I'm not a big fan of wild rice, but I thought this dish was pretty good. The sausage and apples were cooked perfectly.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I will try a simpler recipe next time.

The sausage was a little dry, but the rest of the dish was great. I think I will try using a different type of sausage next time.

This dish was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used a sweeter variety of apple. Next time I will try using a more tart apple.
