Just saw this on TikTok and it looks amazing. It does appear that the Creamy Smoked Sausage and Rice and the plain Smoked Sausage and Rice is the same recipe. Going to try and wing it from the TikTok 👍. Looks yummy
This has become a staple in our dinner rotation! Have been making it since you initially posted it previously with spinach. A family favorite, thank you!

Love this dish – super easy and we get tired of pasta dishes and I can change this up and add green beans
Rice is a comfort food. The one dish is and extra bonus. You make the simplest ingredients into a delicious meal.

We liked this recipe! I made it twice, the second time I added an extra cup of broth and the rice cooked better for me. I’ll def save this! @mahoneys0smile
