Dirty Rice

D inner with family always nice
I nstant winner is dirty rice
R ed, green pepper’s garlic sautéed 
T hen add onions to your taste
Y ummy meat like sausage can be used

R ice with seasoning up to you
I  like Slap Your Mama it’s good
C ajun seasoning it is taste like the hood
E njoy with cornbread as you should

Andrea Dietrich March 22, 2026 at 4:33 PM I have had this rice before. it's sure better than regular steamed rice, which is so plain. With the cornbread, that's nice too. Congrats and thanks for your entry. Karen Jones March 22, 2026 at 6:50 PM I appreciate my placement in your fun contest! Thank you!

Dufflite Xetaw March 4, 2026 at 6:34 PM Transferred me to New Orleans. I don't know why. The sights and more importantly the smells. The company. Having a meal together. I saw a community. Beaded necklaces and coin infused bracelets. Passing the bread baskets. Beautiful. Karen Jones March 4, 2026 at 8:04 PM Thanks Dufflite!
