We have had this pesky can of apple pie filling sitting on the shelf for months. I don’t even know where it came from. And Eva constantly asks if she can eat it. Lunchtime rolled around and this simple recipe came to mind. It is delicious and inexpensive, just how I like ‘em! 
Ingredients:
Rice
3 c. rice
4 1/2 c. water
1 1/2 c. pineapple juice
1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
1 Tbs Teriyaki sauce
Sausage
1 lb smoked sausage, cut into 1/2″ slices (precooked, I used beef)
1 can apple pie filling
1 large onion, diced
1/2 c. pineapple juice
1 Tbs. Teriyaki sauce
salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbs canola oil
Directions:
1. Mix all rice ingredients in a large pot on high heat. When it starts to boil, cover loosely and turn down to low. Leave it alone for around 15 minutes, then uncover and fluff with a fork. Set aside.
