Black Beans, Rice and Chicken Sausage

I love one pot meals ~ they're versatile, easy to make, full of flavor and you get all your nutritious food groups in one pot! In this meal I used a package of Johnsonville Chicken Sausage with Chipotle Pepper and Monterey Jack Cheese, it added nice flavor, but you can use any flavor or plain Chicken Sausage.

1 12 0z package Johnsonville Chicken Sausage with Chipotle Pepper & Montery Jack, sliced into 1/4 inch rounds

1 14.5 oz can petite diced tomatoes
