Rinse the wild rice blend under cold water until the water runs clear.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery, and sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the wild rice blend, then add the vegetable broth, bay leaf, and thyme.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Remove the bay leaf, then season the pilaf with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.
