Rice, Sausage, & Seasonings Breakfast, Lunch, or Dinner Good, QUICK, SIMPLE meal… rice, smoked sausage, and the seasonings you see below (but skip the Rosemary).

36. SHRIMP FRIED RICE
Success & Failure at the same time. ALL THINGS ARE NOT WHAT THEY APPEAR… In this meal I used too much of the spices indicated below (I used all of them).
