KITTENCAL'S SPICY MEXI SAUSAGE AND RICE CASSEROLE

Kittencal's Spicy Mexi Sausage and Rice Casserole image

Substituting ground beef for the spicy Italian sausages will not be as good, Jimmy Dean's Spicy Pork Sausage may be used in place of the spicy Italian sausages --- although I have listed black beans red kidney beans also work well or you may use what you like, or if you are not a lover of beans you may omit, can also add in a 4-ounce can green chilies, I use lots of garlic for this you may reduce amount if desired
