Red Beans & Rice Recipe

[Steve Kroll]

Hoot, that's very close to the same recipe I use. I love red beans & rice. And while I know it would probably be considered sacrilege in New Orleans, I like them with a little grated cheddar over the top.

Steve, I don't recall the origin of that particular recipe. But we like it. And as far as sacrilege goes, I don't mind bein' called sacrilegious a bit.

There isn't any comparison to the crap served at junkfood/fastfood places and homemade food. Why anyone would want to emulate it is strange to me.

Time , not many people have the time to throwdown, in my house it has to planned , just like what to do with the leftover rice from the chinese spot

CraigC -- Like I said it was in desperation !!! I make it from scratch but I am the only one that eats it. So when I don't feel like eating for a week and have a craving for it, My fast food quickie alto not homemade takes the urge away.
