Microwave Sausage and Wild Rice
This hot dish is convenient because it's made in the microwave. It has nice flavor and looks good, too. Even though I've been making it for more than 10 years, I still get requests for it.—Mary Bondegard, Brooksville, Florida
Ingredients
- 1 package (6 ounces) long grain and wild rice
- 1 pound bulk pork sausage
- 1 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced

1Prepare rice according to package directions; set aside. Crumble sausage into an ungreased 2-qt. microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave on high for 3-5 minutes or until no longer pink. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain; reserve 2 tablespoons drippings.
