Red beans and rice

I looked at a whole bunch of different recipes and combined them to come up with this. My husband loved it. So I thought I better blog it so I remember how I did it.

1 onion chopped

1 bell pepper chopped

1 celery chopped

Fry them up in oil. Sweat them longer then you would think as they seem to still be crisp although they looked well cooked. I added to the sweating veg…

bay leaf, oregano, salt, paprika, garlic powder, a few veg oxo cubes

When its all sweated down add a little hot water and …

cooked smoked sausage.  (if its not cooked then I would cook them at the begining I would think)

2 cans of red beans

1 can of chopped stewed tomato

Let it simmer for about 15 mins.

Serve over hot cooked rice.
