1 lb. spicy country sausage, diced
1/2 c. green onion tops, finely chopped
1 c. bell pepper, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 1/2 c. beef bouillon
1/4 c. fresh parsley, finely chopped (or 4 tsp. dry)
1 bay leaf
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. thyme
1/2 tsp. oregano
1 1/2 c. canned tomatoes or Rotel
1 c. uncooked rice

Saute sausage in 2 tablespoons oil, about 3 minutes. Add onions, pepper and garlic - saute until tender, then add other seasonings. Pour in tomatoes and bouillon and rice. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer, covered, for 35 minutes. Do not lift cover! If still moist, take lid off on burner. If still crunchy, add a tad of water, cover and finish cooking.
