hoursThis This Monday staple does not get much simpler that this! Everything in a pot. Bring to a boil, then slow simmer. Red Bean Seasoning does the work in this perfectly-spiced recipe. We love this blend for red beans – and all beans. It does wonders in a pot of black eyed peas. Red Bean Seasoning is salt free, so you’re in the driver’s seat when it comes to getting this big pot of comfort just right.
Ingredients
Steamed rice, parsley and green onions for serving
2 ribs celery, diced
1/2 large onion, diced
1/2 bell pepper, diced
1 lb smoked sausage
1 lb dried Red Beans, rinsed
2 Tbl Red Bean Seasoning
Salt and Cayenne
Instructions
- Heat a large dutch oven over medium heat. Drizzle in Garlic Extra Virgin Olive Oil to coat the bottom. Saute the onion, celery and bell pepper until softened – about 4 mins. Add in the sausage, garlic and Red Bean Seasoning. Saute for another 4 mins.
- Add in the beans and water to cover the beans and come up over them by one inch. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer 4 to 5 hours. Stirring and adding water if the mixture becomes to too thick.
- When the beans are tender, if you want a creamier consistency, remove about 2 cups of beans and mash or puree. Return to the pot. Taste the beans and adjust with salt and cayenne.
- Serve over steamed rice with minced parsley and green onions.
