Country Rice and Sausage

Cook rice according to package microwave directions, omitting salt and fat.

Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add sausage; cook 4 minutes or until browned, stirring to crumble. Remove sausage from pan; set aside, and keep warm.

Add onion and next 6 ingredients to pan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer, 4 minutes or until crisp-tender. Return cooked sausage to pan; stir in cooked rice, parsley, and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
