Vegetable and Herb Wild Rice image

This is my first recipe to post so I'll start with my most popular (either that or the people I serve it to are really polite) but it's also my favorite. What I like about this dish is that, as a main dish, it's a simple, surprisingly tasty setting it aside from many vegetarian dishes... speaking only as a meat eater (uuuummm, I'm gonna get in trouble for that one, huh?), and refreshing change from the usual (chicken, beef, pork or lamb). But give it a try and tell me what you think. Chow!

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used some more spices or herbs.
