Flinzz78, this was really, really good! I didn't have any jalapenos, and instead of using avocado, I was really in the mood for some spice - so I used cilantro, ground corriander, ground cumin, a tiny bit of ground cayenne and woohoo! Instant cross between pico de gallo and your wonderful salad :)
As for the wild rice, mine took 12 hours to split and get kind of chewy, but I waited longer to get it to the right texture. I just kept tasting it :)

Sahara, like trinity082482 wrote, the rice will "split" and soften in a couple days. Just give it some time and you will be happy with the result!

This sounds lovely and fulfilling. I need to go get some black wild rice and give it a shot. I don't mind chewing extra. Thanks for sharing!
