Instructions:

1. Rinse the wild rice in cold water and drain.
2. In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil over high heat. Add the wild rice, reduce the heat to low, and cover. Cook until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, about 45-50 minutes.
3. While the rice is cooking, mix together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper in a small bowl to make the dressing.
4. Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and transfer it to a large bowl.
5. Add the dried cranberries, chopped pecans, parsley, and green onions. Pour the dressing over the top and toss everything together until well combined.
6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
