Mmm, delicious

Tonight, I put together a red bean sauce, using the base recipe from crockpot.com.  I started it last night around 7pm.  It began to smell super delicious right around the time I wanted to sleep.  The intoxicating aromas made me think about eating, rather than sleeping.  The night began restlessly, then moved to down right maddening when the bubbling sauce caused the lid of the Crock Pot to rattle, incessantly, at 4am.  Never again will I cook the red bean sauce overnight.

That said, it was delicious.  I put it over brown jasmine rice and devoured it.  Wow!  What was in this deliciousness?

  • 1 red onion
  • 1 green pepper
  • 3 stalks celery
  • 3 tbs chopped garlic
  • 1 package chicken andouille sausage
  • 1 lb red beans (boiled for 10 min, left to soak for 60min, and rinsed)
  • 25 oz beef broth
  • 2 cups water
  • Emeril’s Creole seasoning for flavor (needed more)

I can’t wait for lunch tomorrow.
