I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of sausage. It was still delicious!

I didn't have any sausage, so I used ground beef instead. It turned out great!

The instructions were a bit confusing, and I ended up overcooking the broccoli. Other than that, the dish was pretty good.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it would have been better with some more spices.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover rice. I usually make a big batch of rice on the weekend, and then I use it to make this dish during the week. It's a quick and easy way to get a healthy and delicious meal on the table.
