Jambalaya:
In a saucepan, bring 2 cups water and 1/2 cup chopped green bell
pepper to a boil. Stir in one portion of the dried mix; return to a
boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 18 to 20 minutes, or until
the rice is tender.

In another saucepan, heat 8 ounces of tomato sauce and 1 pound of
fully cooked, smoked sausage that has been cut into 1/4-inch slices.

Meanwhile, in another saucepan, cook 1 pound of medium-sized, peeled,
de-veined shrimp in water until pink and cooked through. Drain. Stir
shrimp into sausage mixture. Spoon rice onto plates and spoon the
sausage-shrimp mixture on top.

Makes 4 to 6 servings.
