Ingredients

2 cups pecans, ground into fine meal2 cups bread crumbs (I use whole wheat, Italian seasoned)2 cups dry Basmati rice2 cups finely diced tomatoes, leave peeling on, retain juices for recipe mixture1 medium onion, finely diced3 stalks celery, finely diced1 bell pepper, finely diced2 tsps. Celtic sea salt, or other sea salt (more or less to taste)2 tsps. ground sage2 tsps. garlic powder (not garlic salt)ketchup for topping, and about 3/4 cup to mix into recipe mixture, if desired

Directions

Bring 4 cups water to a boil. Add 2 cups basmati rice. Turn heat to low or simmer, and cook for 30 minutes, covered. Then, remove from heat and allow rice to sit, covered, for 15 more minutes, absorbing all water. Saute' bell pepper, celery, and onion in a small amount of water. Use food processor to grind pecans into a fine meal. Stir cooked rice (all water should be absorbed), sauteed veggies, ground pecans, and seasonings in a large mixing bowl. I mix in about 3/4 cup ketchup as well, but I have left this out before to reduce sodium. Spread evenly into an oiled (I use Pam spray) 9 X 13" pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Take out, and spread ketchup on top. Bake for another 15 minutes. Cut and serve.

Serving Size: 9 X 13" pan makes 15 servings
