Red Beans and Rice-ly Yours!

Big Guy and I agree on a lot of things especially when it comes to food memories. We loved our trip to New Orleans many years ago and we still wax poetic about the red beans and rice.

I am one lucky gal that Big Guy is always on the lookout for new recipes. He told me Louis Armstrong’s Red Beans and Rice jumped out of the page of the New York Times which meant it was time to blast some great jazz and get the ingredients.

Big Guy took over the Carondelet Kitchen soaking the red beans overnight. The next day, I wish I could give you smell-o-rama, the perfume of the trinity and sausage became a slice of heaven. As Louis Armstrong sang, what a wonderful world to have this amazing dish in our arsenal!
