Overall, this recipe is great! I omitted the meat, and kicked up the seasoning. The dish IS hearty, and will totally be added to me recipe box.

Great recipe for a weeknight dinner. I used pork sausage, but will consider making it with ground turkey next time to make it a little healthier. This is a definitely a "keeper".

My sister-in-law gave me a recipe similar to this but it calls for 16oz pkg. of sausage sliced, 2 15oz cans of ranch style beans, 1 can of rotel & 2 cups of cooked rice. Just heat everything on the stove and serve over rice. Sooo easy.

I used chopped andouille sausage and cajun seasoning instead. Turned out delicious! This is one of my quick and easy go to recipes.

I've made this several times with different flavored sausage and loved it every time.
