Authentic Big Easy Red Beans and Rice image

Quick, Simple, and filled with real Cajun flavor as if you're eating in New Orleans, Louisiana. While simmering, taste for flavor - add a little more Cajun seasoning if needed. I've combined green, orange, and red bell peppers before and it was delicious. Note: 2 tablespoons minced garlic, not 2 cloves

These red beans and rice were just okay. The flavors were a bit bland for my taste, and the beans were a little undercooked. I think I would try a different recipe next time.
