Mike's EZ Red Beans & Rice

Regularly, my students are charged with making quick and easy side dishes to pair with their entrées. This was one of their creations.
Many of my students opted to use traditional long grained rice. Another used 2 packages of Uncle Ben's 90 Second Microwaved Red Beans & Rice. While another employed 2 Success Minute Rice bags. All turned out delicious tho!

Monday Red Beans and Rice Monday Red Beans and Rice
In the New Orleans area, Red Beans and Rice is a tradition on Mondays. In times past, leftover meats from Sunday became part of the recipe for Red Beans and Rice. Since there are no leftovers in my house, I have come to rely on Andouille sausage and ham chunks for the meat ingredients. I take short cuts because traditional southern recipes can be an all day long affair for which I do not have time. alley927cat -

I had a bag of dry beans from the panic buying spree when the pandemic lockdowns began, but I never figured out what to do with them before now. I managed to score some Andouille sausage somewhere and found this recipe that seems like it would work with what I got. 🇺🇲 #cajun 蛟龍Stormwyrm -

Note: this is what happens when there’s not many “rice” eaters in the fam. Most of the beans and sausage is eaten and mostly bean juice and rice is left over. That’s when the juice and rice is mixed together for another dish. #GlobalApron 2024 Sonya Bankester -

Creamy Cajun Red Beans & Rice Creamy Cajun Red Beans & Rice
Red Beans and rice is a Cajun dish that used to be cooked on wash day. It's a meal you put on and slow cook for hours that way you can take care of the laundry! These days it is still a major part of Cajun cuisine. When money is tight I cook this using just 2 lbs of Manda sausage instead of using andoullie & Sausage. It's a good bargain but still flavorful sausage. The family can eat this for a few days served differently.You can easily half this recipe to cook only one pound of beans. I have a large family and what's left over I will use to make chilli. Bayou Cajun Mama
