INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1/2 cup uncooked white rice
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 pound pork sausage

  • 4 cups cubed zucchini squash
  • 2 (4 ounce) cans sliced mushrooms, drained
  • 1 (8 ounce) package processed cheese food, cubed
  • 1 pinch dried oregano

DIRECTIONS

  1. Combine the rice and water in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, and set aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
