Uncle John's Spanish Rice

One of our favorite recipes from John Rojas 2017

1 Can of Pigeon Peas

1 Jar of Spanish Olives (green olives)

1-2 Green Bell Peper - diced

1 Onion - diced

1 small can of Tomato Sauce

1 package of sausage - skinned and ripped into chunks

1 packet of Sazon seasoning

4 Cups of Rice (white & not instant)

Salt & Pepper to taste

**My modifications:  More sausage, green pepper & onion.

Less rice by 1 cup

Strain & rinse the peas & olives

Lightly brown the sausage then add in all the other ingredients EXCEPT tomato sauce & Sazon seasoning.

Bring to a boil.

When water boils, add in 4 cups of rice.

When water with the rice comes up to a boil again, put heat on the lowest setting, cover & cook for 45 minutes.

DO NOT OPEN LID.
