Spicy Sausage & Brown Rice

I know I know you're probably like okay how many AMAZING dishes can this girl actually have (eye roll)....I make about 4-5 new recipes a week and I'm super picky about the ones that I actually share. They have to pass the "Troy" test and be worth making again.

This recipe did not disappoint! My mother-in-law shared this one with me. I made a few modifications and it was gone like that!

- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
