Today I am sharing with you one of our family's favorite recipes. This was a recipe I grew up with and I now make for my own family. It's a sausage and rice casserole. I can honestly say this is one that my kids ask me to make over and over. On a day like today when it is cold outside, this is the perfect comfort food to make.
It's super easy and has a great flavor! I like it with the hot sausage for extra spice, but the mild sausage also works just fine. It's your preference.
Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 lb bulk sausage (I use Bob Evans zesty hot)
1/2 onion chopped
1 small celery stalk chopped
5 cups water
1 pkg of Lipton chicken noodle soup secrets (2 packets)
1 cup of uncooked rice (not minute rice)
Steps:
1. Boil 5 cups of water and add both packets of Lipton chicken noodle soup, boil for 7 minutes
2. Saute chopped onion, bulk sausage, and celery until brown, drain
3. Combine both with 1 cup of uncooked rice in a 9×13 casserole dish
4. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hr
Let me know what you think if you give it a try!

I make a sausage and rice dish similar to this, but mine isn’t a casserole. I may have to make that slight change and see how it turns out.
Thank you for sharing this with us on the #HomeMattersParty. We hope to see you again next Friday at 12 AM EST when we open our doors again.
I think you will like it, Crystal!
Sorry it took so long to visit – I’m a tad behind!! Thanks for sharing at the What’s for Dinner link up!
Looks delicious! Will have to try it.
It is really yummy, Rebecca!
I actually make something similar to this but with chicken. I may have to switch it out for sausage next time! It sounds tasty!
Oh, I’ve never thought of doing it with chicken. You switch to sausage and I’ll switch to chicken next time. Great idea!! Thank you.
Love this recipe! It is definitely a family favorite.
Looks delicious! Think I’ll make it for dinner tonight!
