Red Beans and Rice Recipe is the perfect kidney beans recipe filled with all of the classic Southern creole flavors throughout. This is an awesome addition to your favorite cajun recipes.
This Red beans and rice recipe is a soulful dish. I love to watch the beans simmer away in a pot of spices and intense flavors gradually thickening and melding together in the most magical way. Once ready, this kidney beans recipe is smothered with rice, and your first taste is the reward for your patience.
I grew up eating all types of beans. My mother is the queen of crock pot bean meals. From lima beans and pinto beans to red beans, we had them all and very regularly too. Red beans have a personality all their own, and the South really knows how to bring that personality out. I never really appreciated my mother’s consistent bean meals until later in life when I began making them myself.
