    1/4 bunch green onions

Chop [white] onions and bell pepper. Cut garlic finely. Brown onions, bell pepper, and garlic. Add tomato sauce and stewed tomatoes. Simmer 15 minutes.

Add chicken and sausage cut into bite size pieces. Cook until chicken is tender. Add raw rice and chopped green onions. Stir ingredients thoroughly. Add enough water to cover ingredients by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil. Cover and cook on low heat for 35-45 minutes or until rice is tender.
