This is a low-fat version of the classic Cajun dish. You can use any kind of meat...sausage, chicken, shrimp, or, as I do, lowfat turkey sausage. This is a snap to prepare. You'll love it!

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ pounds hot turkey sausage
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
3 cloves garlic, pressed
1 (14.5 ounce) can Italian-style diced tomatoes, undrained
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 ½ cups uncooked long-grain white rice
