1 lb. pork sausage
1 cup chopped celery
½ cup chopped onion
½ cup chopped green pepper
1 cup uncooked regular rice
1 ½ envelopes dry chicken noodle soup mix
1/3 cup chopped almonds
3 cups boiling water

Cook sausage until brown.  Leave enough drippings in the pan to sauté celery, onion, and green pepper until crisp-tender.  Combine with other ingredients.  You can do this ahead of time, and just add the boiling water right before you bake it.  Bake at 350 for 45-60 minutes.
