I created this dish one day when I wasn't in the mood for anything I'd tried before. I used ingredients I had on hand. It's since become one of my family's requested meals.—Janet Wood, Windham, New Hampshire

Ingredients

  • 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
  • 1 cup uncooked long grain rice
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 cup frozen peas, thawed

Directions
