Veggie Sausage Jambalya - 7 WWs points per serving

Recipe time!

To help get me back on track I'm going to have this for dinner, instead of two measly fish fingers! It's only 7 points per serving and makes a really tasty, healthy meal in minutes, with enough left for lunch the next day!

Vegetarian Sausage Jambalya

Serves 4

Ingredients - 
1tbsp olive oil
1tsp smoked paprika
8 Quorn sausages, defrosted if frozen
300g brown basmati rice (easy cook)
400g tinned, chopped tomatoes
1tsp wild oregano (dry or fresh. If fresh throw in at the end)
450ml stock (I make it up with 4 tsp bouillon)
1 red pepper
1 green pepper
1 bunch (about 4 or 5) of spring onions, chopped

What to do with it all -
Heat up the oil in the pan. When hot, add the paprika and allow to infuse.

Meanwhile chop up the sausages into bite-sized pieces. Add them to the pan and allow them to cook on a high heat. Stir regularly to avoid them burning, but so that they get a nice bit of colour to the outside.

Stir in the rice and peppers and coat with the oil. After a few minutes pour in the tomatoes and stock and throw in the dried oregano. Allow to simmer for 15 minutes.

Cover and cook for another 10-15 minutes, until most of the liquid has absorbed and the rice is tender.

Serve with the spring onion chopped on top.
