Add the celery, onion, garlic powder and

green pepper to the skillet. I cooked the

green pepper separately and added it to my

husbands dish later as I do not like green pepper.

    • I split the whole thing with my husband and put green peppers in his. It took me 3 times eating my half to finish it. I ate it hot the first night then cold the other times…so good! Thanks John!

  1. Despite the rather horrid name for this dish it works well and enjoyed it with company.used real meat sausages rather than processed and added mushrooms but otherwise as you advised in recipe I followed to the letter. Thank you.

  2. It was interesting to read this recipe. I fix many meals we call “one dish” because the entire meal, like this one, is a mixture on one dish. They all are very similar to your recipe: they have sauteed vegetables, meat, and rice. The variations are just the meat – anything left over and the spices depending on the meat or my mood. I might cook the rice in water or chicken broth or beef broth, again depending on my mood and the meat and spices. I am just as likely to add any vegetable I find in the drawer depending on the overall flavor I seek. I frequently use diced carrots as well. i have added beans or peas at times.

    • Isn’t it crazy how just a little variation can make an entirely different tasting meal? It took me years to realize this. I can’t believe how different rice can taste depending on what liquid you use to cook it in too. Enjoy your week!

  3. Oh my, this brings back memories from when I lived in Houston Texas and had easy access to Cajun food as well as would frequently visit New Orleans on business trips! I think I once tried to make dirty rice. Your recipe looks do-able!
