Harvest Mixed-Grain Pilaf with Mushrooms

Notes:

THIS DISH IS BASED ON A FAVORITE (and classic) Martha Stewart recipe. I love the combination of grains and the foolproof method of cooking them all at once, mixed together. I adjusted the recipe, adding an extra vegetable or two for color and some lentils for a little softness. • Serves 6
