This recipe is so easy to make and the flavors blend well together. I cook it in the crockpot as indicated and I put them on tortilla's and make wraps. Awesome!

A great recipe to come home to after a long day. The fresh bell peppers really set the dish off for us and give the dish some firmer texture than the canned tomatoes, I doubled the amounts for both red and green and would not have enjoyed the dish as much if I used only 1/2 of each. I also thought the amount of sausage was a little low. If I make this as a side I may omit it entirely, but for a meal I'll use a pound and a half. I also used instant rice: added at the end of cooking, then turned the crockpot off and mixed a couple times until it absorbed enough juice and the grains tasted done. The neighbors mouths were watering from the scent - thanks for such a fresh and flavorful slow cooker dish :).

Thought it needed something, but not sure what. I chose mild salsa and taco flavoring, so maybe I'll increase to medium or hot. Definitely will try it again, though.

The flavor was good but the rice was very mushy. I cooked it for 5 hours on low.

My Family a I loved this one, even my 9 year old went back for third helpings. I cooked on low for 5 hours. Used smoked beef kielbasa and medium salsa, and roasted chili peppers (in the can). I added shredded cheese on top of mine at the table with some sour cream and WOW! This is definitely a keeper! Only thing I didn't like was the onions remained crunchy (the bell peppers did cook okay). Next time I will either microwave onions to soften or sautee (depending on time).

This is great! I took it to a football tailgate right in the crockpot and all the kids loved it. Easy, yummy!

Great recipe. I used 3 cups of fresh chopped home grown tomatoes (instead of the canned tomatoes), and homemade salsa. I used rice pilaf (2 boxes) for the rice. I think next time will will use a bit more Kielbasa, maybe 1/2 pound more. I might brown it a bit on the stove first too, but its good either way. Even my 4 year old loved it!

I prepared this dish exactly as the recipe specified. It was absolutely awesome! I am a stay at home house hubby, so I do all of the cooking. My wife went back for seconds of this dish. She never goes back for seconds. Great dish. Leftovers can be wrapped in a flour tortilla with cheddar cheese. Awesome!

This was sooo good!! To the poster who rated it low...you cooked it too long if your rice was mushy. Either that or did you possibly use instant rice? Mine cooked for 5 hrs. almost exactly and it was perfect. I used Uncle Ben's converted white rice. I expecially like this recipe because you can "heat" it to your personal preference. We like a little bite to our dish so I used the medium salsa. It was perfect.

Oh... I was hoping for better. Mine turned out really mushy and leftover was even worse. I think next time I'll stick with a stove top or baked version.

Review is based solely on the SOs opinion; I do not do spicy! Had this waiting for him one evening when I wasn't home, and he loved it. I did make some changes; browned ground sausage and added my own seasonings, subbed some dried red chilies for the can of green, used regular brown rice (so added an extra cup of water), added a bit of frozen corn, used half a red pepper instead of a whole green, and cooked for about 8 hours. He actually called me just to say how good it was! Will try again, next time with the right ingredients! Thanks!

This was so easy to make and it came out delicious. I followed the recipe exactly, using medium salsa - oh, and I added a small can of sliced olives. I served this with cheddar cheese corn bread. It made enough for two dinners for my family. This would be great for a church potluck.

What an easy main dish, but certainly not inferior; we like this better than my more time-consuming old faithful baked Spanish Rice! I browned and drained a generous lb. of medium-hot bulk pork sausage, because that's what I had on hand, and to make it healthier, used 1 1/2 cups brown rice instead of converted. I used medium salsa, and it turned out perfect, not bland at all! When serving it, we like to sprinkle a bit of shredded lowfat cheddar or mozzarella cheese on top. Love this recipe!

Great easy and simple. I only added a few splashes of tabasco to give it a bit more kick.

This recipe was extremely easy to make. I made it exactly as called for and my family loved it. It's not very spicy. If you like spicier rice, you could add some jalapenos. And to add a little more flavor, you could substitute chicken broth for the water. Thanks for the easy good meal!

I'm in the UK & couldn't find the Polish sausage. As a regular traveller to Spain. I added 1 large "Chorizo" a Spanish sausage & a pinch of saffron to this recipe. It was fantastic & well recommended Thank You
