Mexican salsa rice

This was a result of not having much left in the fridge, so I dug around in the freezer looking for stuff to throw in the crock pot.

4 vegetarian breakfast sausage links
4 vegetarian buffalo chicken pieces, without sauce
1 1/2 cups mixed frozen vegetables (zucchini, carrots, potatoes)
1 bell pepper, sliced
24oz jar of mild salsa
1 cup dry brown rice
1 cup vegetable broth

Combine all ingredients in crock pot and cook on high for 6 hours.

Serve with shredded cheddar cheese on top.

Review: This turned out really great.  My husband says it is the best thing yet.  I didn't add any additional spices because I felt the salsa had plenty of salt and flavor.  The sausage and fake chicken added some great texture and flavor but I think it would have been fine without them.
