Sausage N Rice Recipes

SAUSAGE N RICE

Steps:

• 1. Cook rice as package indicates. Do not add salt or butter.
• 2. Cook bacon in the oven until crispy. Then crumble bacon(Save the bacon grease)
• 3. In a large skillet cook sausage patties. (save the grease) When they are done chopped them to your desired size.
• 4. Cut link sausage into medium size chunks. You should get 4-5 chunks from one link.
• 5. Saute links in bacon & sausage grease(1 cup) until browned. I know it seems like a lot of grease but once you finish; it will all come together nicely.
• 6. Add Red & Green Bell peppers
• 7. Add onions
• 8. Add mushrooms
• 9. Add minced garlic
• 10. When the veggies are at your desired tenderness.( I like mine very tender.)
• 11. Add chopped patty sausage to mixture.
• 12. Add soup mix and black pepper to veggies. Stir until mixed in good.
• 13. Add crumbled bacon.
• 14. Add rice to sausage & veggie mixture. Turn the stove to warm!(rice should be warm). Mix together well. It's ready to eat now!! I allow the rice to sit a few minutes for the flavors to work through.
• 15. Just a note: I like to brown my sausage really good before I put the veggies in to give the grease a dark brown color which make the rice a darker color. The smokey flavor is great! You can make this recipe your own. I have even added black beans in the rice at the end before. Sweet carrots taste excellent in it as well.
• 16. I named the brands of meat because this is the only brands my husband will eat. You are welcome to use over brands to explore different flavors. I always wondered what Italian sausage would taste like in this recipe.
