Spicy Ham Jambalaya

In a large frying pan, on medium high, sauté:

• 1/2 cup chopped onion (I used frozen)
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 1 cup chopped red pepper (I used julienne carrots)
• 1 tsp minced garlic

Cook about 5 minutes, until the onion is soft. Then, stir in:

• 1 cup uncooked rice
• 1/2 cup chicken bouillon
• 1 tsp hot pepper sauce
• 1 whole bay leaf
• 2 cups chopped, seeded tomatoes
• 2 cups cubed cooked ham

Bring to a boil. Simmer, covered, about 25 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed. Remove the bay leaf, and serve.

Serves 4.
