- For best results, use ground beef with a fat content of 85/15.
- If you cannot find wild rice, you can substitute brown rice.
- Substitute ground turkey for ground beef - This substitution is a healthier option as turkey is a leaner meat than beef, and it will also reduce the amount of saturated fat in the dish.
- Substitute quinoa for wild rice - Quinoa is a gluten-free grain that is high in protein and fiber, making it a healthier alternative to wild rice. It also adds a unique texture and flavor to the soup.
Vegetarian Option Substitute 1 pound of cooked lentils for the ground beef and use vegetable broth instead of beef broth.
Mexican Street Corn Salad - This delicious and easy-to-make side dish is the perfect accompaniment to the Mexican Corn and Wild Rice Soup. The combination of sweet corn, creamy mayonnaise, and zesty cotija cheese will add a unique and delicious flavor to the meal.
