My bowl of rice turned into a hotdish tonight...and it's amazing!

So I was just throwing together some dinner tonight, and somehow made this masterpiece of a meal. 

Here's what I did:

Made Brown rice (like the package says to: boil 1 cup water, add 1/2 rice once it boils with a little bit of salt and butter) 

I threw in a handful of washed cilantro in the pot.

 

Sauté onion in butter, added to rice pot (I had to add water to rice pot tonight, it may have been due to adding onion, watch for that in your meal) 

Cook Italian sausage, I get the links from the store (like bratwurst shape) and take the casings off and cook in a pan since I'm cooking for just me. 

Once rice is done mix it with sausage in a bowl, add a tad of butter, feta cheese and fresh cilantro in top and BOOM! You have what I made in the picture. It's amazing! 

Notes: I have never bought cilantro until this week, and avoided recipes that had it. Turns out it comes in a bag, next to the bag lettuce at target. All you do (or at least what I did) was was it and rip it up and throw it in. Tastes mmm..mmm...good! 

Sausage in casings is a really easy way to make a one person portion. Once I discovered you can do this, I do it all the time. It makes it really easy. And trader joe has a big selection.
