C'est si bon!! (That's Cajun French saying for "It's so good!") This is bursting with Cajun flavor. Super easy, this is great for breakfast or a hearty brunch. It would be fun to serve this on Fat Tuesday before all the festivities begin.

Test Kitchen Tips

There are other brands of dirty rice mixtures in stores you can use. If you substitute, just make sure to use an 8 oz box (not family size).

Step 1

In a large skillet, fry your sausage, onions, peppers, and mushrooms. Then you want to drain your fat.

Step 2

Add your eggs and cook until firmly done.
Step 3

Add remaining ingredients and stir well.
Step 4

Bring to a boil and reduce the heat.
Step 5

Cover and simmer for 25 minutes and stir occasionally.
