Ex’s computer is in the fender and body shop, so y’all are stuck with me. She did request the Red Beans and Rice recipe, with emphasis on using chorizo sausage if available. So before I can get anything wrong…<\/p>\n
For anyone who likes red beans and rice, here\u2019s how I fix it:<\/p>\n
1 can (14.5 oz) red beans canned in chili sauce<\/p>\n
1 smoked sausage of your choice<\/p>\n
1\/2 to 1 cup of rice<\/p>\n
1 14.5 oz can of beef or chicken broth<\/p>\n
1 chorizo sausage, mild or hot \u2013 your choice<\/p>\n
Olive oil<\/p>\n
A cooking pan of your choice.<\/p>\n
Pour some olive oil into the pan. Squeeze the chorizo out of its tube. Start with medium heat. Let the chorizo start to disperse, then add the chili beans, rice and broth. Keep simmering on medium heat, stirring occasionally, and cover when you are not stirring it. Add the smoked sausage when the rice is truly cooked. Brown rice will take longer to cook than milled white rice, so you may need to add more broth.<\/p>\n
The cook time should take about 30 to 45 minutes. Very filling, and good on a cold winter day. Add some cornbread (and lots of butter) plus favorite beverage, a side of cut-up veggies and a good book or pry some dinner conversation out of your kids while you eat. For dessert: your choice, but apple pie with ice cream is always good.<\/p>\n
This is a quick and inexpensive solution to feeding a large crowd, too. The portions per item are below.<\/p>\n
Note: one can of beans provides two servings. The same thing with broth: you may need to add more liquid if you use brown rice instead of milled white rice. The hot or mild chorizo will provide all the flavor you need, and the smoked sausage ditto. One big link of smoked sausage will give you two to three servings, or you can stretch it by slicing it into coins. Drop some cut up green stuff from green onion tails on top of the red beans and rice.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Corn bread or biscuits? It’s the old Ford-Chevy argument, whichever floats your boat. Thanks, Ex. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
