Wild Rice Turkey Salad (courtesy of Gay Woodgate, Minnesota)

3 cups cooked wild rice
3 cups cubed cooked turkey
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1/3 cup chopped celery
1 can (8 oz) sliced water chestnuts, drained and halved
2/3 cup mayonnaise
2/3 cup sour cream
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp dill weed
1 cup cashews, divided
1 cup halved seedless red grapes

In a large bowl, combine the rice, turkey, onions, celery and water chestnuts. Combine the mayo, sour cream, salt, pepper and dill; pour over salad and gently stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Coarsely chop 3/4 cup cashews. Just before serving, stir the grapes and chopped cashews into the salad. Garnish with remaining cashews.
