Egg Free, Dairy Free Creamy Sausage and Rice

This is a creamy, simple casserole.

Creamy Sausage and Rice

1/4 cup dairy free margarine
1/4 cup flour
2 cups soy milk
1 pound sausage, casings removed and browned like ground beef
2 cups uncooked instant rice, cooked

Melt the margarine in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour then whisk until completely moistened. Slowly add the soy milk, whisking constantly, until combined and the sauce has thickened. Add the sausage and rice. Cook and stir until heated through and thoroughly combined.
*  If you would like this casserole a little crispier on the top and bottom, you can place all of the ingredients in a sprayed 9x13 baking dish then bake at 375 for 30 minutes.
*  A can of peas or corn can be added to the casserole if desired.
