Wild Rice Craisin Bread

This is one of my mom's fabulous homemade bread recipes. She has many in her arsenal. And if you are ever lucky enough to visit Camp Shetek, you'll get to taste them.

This one is good hot out of the oven with butter, toasted, or even room temp with butter. It's one of my favorites.




Wild Rice Craisin Bread

That sounds yummy! I am going to keep this recipe in mind for a day when I have leftover wild rice to use up.
