Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup uncooked regular long-grain white rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup thick & chunky salsa
  • 8 oz smoked kielbasa or Polish sausage, thinly sliced
  • 1 can (15 to 16 oz) black-eyed peas, drained, rinsed
  • 1 cup frozen corn

Steps

  • 1
    In 4-quart saucepan, mix rice and water. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 2
    Stir in salsa, sausage, peas and corn. Cook uncovered 10 to 12 minutes, stirring frequently, until corn is tender and mixture is thoroughly heated.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    The salsa is added after the rice is cooked because the acid from the tomatoes can prevent the rice from becoming tender.
  • tip 2
    A mixed fresh-fruit salad and corn muffins are tasty accompaniments for this meal.
