1 sm. onion
4 Polish sausages (about 1 to 1 1/2 lbs.)
1 to 2 tsp. oil
1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
1 (16 oz.) can whole tomatoes
1 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. basil
2 to 3 tsp. each garlic powder & onion powder (not salt)
1 c. rice, uncooked
2 c. water
10 to 12 shakes Crystal hot sauce or Tabasco sauce

Simmer first 3 ingredients on medium heat 15 to 20 minutes until onion is tender. Add remaining ingredients; mix well. Simmer on low 30 to 45 minutes until rice is tender. You may need to add water during simmering to prevent sticking. If you use Minute Rice decrease simmering time until rice is done.
