My parents took a 'heart smart' cooking class from a large teaching hospital in Ann Arbor and this was one of the most popular dishes. I couldn't find the exact brand of the seven grain pilaf called for - but found another brand in the organic section of my supermarket that worked just find.
About 4 times a year we have 13+ move in with us for a long weekend - and last weekend was one of those times. I made this pilaf and it was gobbled up in record time. I hope you enjoy it
