Spicy Rice Casserole image

Stirring up pork sausage, wild rice and jalapeno to taste makes this a terrific side. Or serve it with cornbread to turn it into a main dish. It's easy to make ahead and reheat for a potluck meal. -Debbie Jones, California, Maryland

This casserole was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. He said it was the perfect amount of heat. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less cayenne pepper next time.
