Sausage with Tomato Sauce over Rice

Last week I was on vacation and thought it would be the perfect time to try something new. We had a couple sausages in the freezer and I didn't feel like regular sausage on a bun...I wanted something different. I adapted this recipe from Taste of Home. It was a hit! We all loved it :) I think I would have preferred it a little spicier, but I have been trying to cut back on spice. My poor little man gets his food ALL over the place!! Sometimes he ends up wiping his eyes, and stings himself. So I am cutting back, we can always add spiciness to ours after it is cooked!
