Sausage and Rice Casserole Side Dish image

When company's coming or when I need a quick-and-easy dish to pass, this is my hands-down favorite. A neighbor introduced me to the delicious combination of fluffy rice and sage-seasoned sausage. One forkful was all it took to convince me that I'd found a winner. -Joyce Green, Bettendorf, Iowa
