Slow-carb diet friendly. We eat this daily. Keep it in stock. I separate this into mini food storage containers and freeze for an easy side dish to reheat when I don't have free time. Make sure to soak kidney beans the night before.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have ham leftover from Easter and Christmas, and this is a great way to use it up.

I was disappointed with these red beans. They were bland and lacked flavor.

These red beans were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious these red beans were. I'm not usually a big fan of beans, but these were so creamy and flavorful that I couldn't stop eating them. The sauce was also amazing - I could have eaten it with a spoon.
