Cajun Dirty Rice

1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound beef sausage
1 onion, finely diced
1 (8 ounce) package dirty rice mix
2 cups water
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers
2 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans, drained salt and pepper to taste (always use as little salt as possible - I don't add any salt)

1. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, sausage, and onion; drain.
2. In a large pan, combine rice mix and 2 cups water.
Add diced tomatoes and chilies.
Stir in the kidney beans.
Bring to a boil, then add meat mixture.
Season with salt and pepper.
Return to boil, reduce heat, and cover, stirring occasionally.
Cook for 25 minutes, until rice is easily fluffed with a fork.
