Leslie's Broccoli, Wild Rice, and Mushroom Stuffing

Submitted by Annacia

"I have never met Leslie but I'd like to thank her! I found this on another web site and after trying it I think it's the only way I'll make stuffing again. If you'd like to try something a bit different and really good give this one a try."

Great rice! I had it plain as a main dish and not as a stuffing but it was so good. The broccoli was a great addition and in a turkey stuffing must be great. I added the almonds and I also used a clove of garlic. Unfortunatly my camera was low in battery and I didn't take any photos, next time! Thanks Annacia!
