Tomato Gravy and Rice


What's for Dinner tonight? Tomato Gravy and Rice, it is a true poor mans meal that is so filling and pretty good for you too. This was one of the first meals I made my hubby while we were dating. He didn't like it then but now it is one of his favorites. He used to be a pretty picky eater but since we have been married his palate has expanded. Lets just say when he was younger he couldn't stand spaghetti and now he likes sushi.

Tomato Gravy and Rice

Serves about 4

1 28 oz can of petite diced tomatoes
1 package turkey smoked sausage
1 small onion chopped
1 Tbs bacon fat
Salt and Pepper to taste
Prepare your favorite rice.

Slice the sausage in half inch slices
Brown the onion and sausage in the bacon fat in medium pan
Add tomatoes
Salt and pepper to taste
Simmer about 15 minutes
Serve over rice

Eating this makes me think of being a kid and picking out all of the chunks of tomato. My Daddy still like me to cook this for him when I go home to visit.
