For the Red Beans & Rice

Preparation

For the Red Beans & Rice

1. Cook the Vegetables

In a large pot, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.

2. Combine Ingredients

Add the red beans, vegetable broth, bay leaf, and cajun seasoning to the pot. Stir to combine.

3. Simmer

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4. Cook the Rice

While the beans are simmering, cook the white rice according to package instructions.

5. Finish and Serve

Once the beans are tender, season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve the red beans over the cooked rice.
