I am in love with an any variation on rice and bean which are the wolds cheapest foods. If I could have 50 different ways to eat a rice & bean combo meal then I would truly be a Rich Bitch. I’m new to Cajun, it’s not my go to so I’m glad I got off my ass and made this. This could easily be made vegan and/or dairy free. One skillet dinner, yo.

1. Take 2 TB of oil (butter, olive oil, etc) and melt in skillet
2. Saute onions and celery in oil & add salt (bell pepper would be nice too)
3. Add sausage to cook with veggies (optional)
4. Once everything is cooked in skillet add 1.5 cup water, .5 cup white rice, can of beans & 1/4 cup salsa
5. Throw in spices (chili powder, cumin, garlic, poultry spices) & jalapeno
6. Stir everything around & let simmer with the lid on
7. Check after 15 minutes or so. Once rice is done & water is absorbed you’re done. (add more water if rice isn’t done)
