3 Sisters Wild Rice Salad

The “three sisters” this dish refers to are corn, squash, and beans. In a technique originating from Northeastern Native American tribes, the three crops are planted together so the corn stalk provides support for the climbing bean plant, while the squash spreads horizontally to cover and protect the soil. The “sisters” also complement each other nutritionally, offering complex carbohydrates, fiber, protein, and a host of phytonutrients in every bite.
