Who says stuffing has to be made with bread? Rice-based dressings are a good way to mix up the Thanksgiving lineup. The nutty, hearty texture of wild rice is fantastic with the turkey and all the trimmings. Plus, it's an indigenous American ingredient.
Keep in mind that wild rice from different sources cooks at different rates, so check the package to get an idea of how long it should cook. The goal is tender rice that still retains its structure.\
