Red Beans and Rice

"My DH is from Louisiana and loves Cajun food. This is one thing I've learned to make pretty well (or so he says). I used to make it in the crock pot, but I prefer to make it on the stove top. I won't even begin to claim it's authentic, but we like it! Oh, and please don't use kidney beans! Small red beans and kidney beans are not the same."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm "49 & holding" and love to cook. I learned to cook as a child, standing in a chair watching my grandmother. She was very talented in the kitchen and passed her love of food on to me. My DH tells me he would be a much thinner man, if my cooking wasn't so good. We have two kids, both out of high school and getting about on their own. Our son is more interested in cooking than our daughter. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
