Ingredients
2 mild or hot Italian sausages
vegetable oil
284-mL can undiluted tomato soup
1 tsp dried dill
1 tsp paprika
1/4 cup orzo or quick-cooking rice
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
chopped fresh basil, or parsley (optional)
Instructions
Cut sausages in half. Lightly coat a large saucepan with oil, then set over medium heat. Squeeze meat from casings into pan (discard casings). Using a fork, stir frequently to keep meat crumbly and cook until no longer pink, 5 minutes. Then stir in soup with 2 cans of water, dillweed and paprika. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Add orzo. Stir often until tender, about 5 minutes. Add frozen vegetables. Stir often until hot, 3 minutes. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with basil.
