This recipe re-surfaced on CL's top favorite slow cooker recipes recently. It received some mixed ratings there, but we loved it. I used low-sodium chicken broth instead of water - some have suggested using V-8. I misread the recipe and used only smoked turkey sausage -about 3/4 of a 14 ounce package. We don't eat beef or pork, so I guess I read what I wanted to read! In spite of the recipe's title, we used egg noodles instead of rice - for no particular reason. Very tasty dish with a bit of hotness.
