Many moons ago I had a similar recipe called "Mama's Rice Dish" but was made with hamburger and tomatoes. I like the addition of sausage, and did include a can of tomatoes as well. It sure makes lots! We had it for dinner, lunches the next day, and I froze some too. I'm eating the frozen version for lunch today. I like to make casseroles ahead of time, so like that this freezes well to boot!

I thought this was very easy and flavorful. I've cooked this twice since Christmas and it was wonderful both times! Because of sodium cut backs I left off the salt. Thanks for sharing this great quick recipe! Another Keeper!
