Ingredients
1 cup dry white rice, previously steamed
2 cans kidney beans
1 cup chicken broth
1 lb cooked sausage (I like Nature’s Rancher from Whole Foods)
1/2 onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 bay leaf
1 tsp dried parsley
large pinch of dried sage
2 tsp cajun seasoning
1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
topping: sliced green onions
Instructions
First, steam your rice.
As the rice is steaming, saute your sausage in a large skillet
Next, saute chopped veggies (can do in same or separate skillet with some olive oil)
Combine sausage and veggies if not already combined and add remaining ingredients (minus cooked rice and green onions)
With a masher, mash the beans for a few minutes to help thicken the sauce and create a creamier consistency
Bring dish to a boil, then reduce to a simmer
Simmer for 20-30 minutes.
Serve red beans and sausage over rice and topped with green onions
