Recipe Summary Authentic Louisiana Red Beans And Rice
Authentic Cajun flavor! I grew up in Louisiana and love red beans and rice; these are just like I remember. Serve with Tabasco sauce for a little kick. My family loved to splash a little cider vinegar in each bowl.Ingredients | Smothered Pork Chop Recipes Soul Food
