I'm not a big fan of sausage, so I used ground beef instead. It was still very tasty.

I didn't have any Cajun seasoning, so I used a different spice blend. It still turned out pretty good.

I'm not usually a fan of spicy food, but this dish was surprisingly mild. The flavors were still very complex and delicious.

This Cajun-inspired dish was a hit with my family! The sausage and rice were perfectly cooked, and the sauce had just the right amount of spice. I'll definitely be making this again.
