Southwest Kielbasa Bowls image

Here's our at-home take on restaurant burrito bowls. We start with rice, kielbasa and black beans, then top 'em with salsa, red onion and cilantro. Use a spicier sausage if you want to crank up the heat. -Abby Williamson, Dunedin, Florida

SOUTHWESTERN RICE

I created this colorful side dish after eating something similar at a restaurant. It complements any Tex-Mex meal wonderfully. Sometimes I add cubes of grilled chicken breast to the rice to make it a meal in itself. -Michelle Dennis, Clarks Hill, Indiana

SAUSAGE WRAPS

Sausage Wraps image

This is fast and easy to make and yummy. It's a big hit for either breakfast or an appetizer at a party. Kids love them and so do adults. You can either use already formed sausage patties or make your own patties from a tube of sausage. I prefer to make my own, you can make them a bit smaller and have a little variety as to what kind of seasoned sausage you use.

Time 27m

Yield 16 make your own, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package sausage (I like the mild)
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
2 ounces cheese, of your choice (I like the pepper jack or swiss)
3 teaspoons mustard

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375.
In a skillet cook up the patties or form your own patties, small.
Remove from heat and blot on paper towel.
Seperate and cut dough into triangles enough for each patty.
Brush with the mustard and place piece of cheese small enough to fit under the patty.
Place sausage on top of triangle and wrap around it, covering most of it by crisscrossing.
Place wrapped patty on ungreased cookie sheet or baking stone and bake for 11-13 minutes or until golden brown.
How many this yields depends mostly on how big you make the patties and how many triangles you cut.
For ready made patties it makes 8.
