This recipe is insanely easy to throw together.
Red Beans and Sausage with Rice
Serves 6
2 cans kidney beans, drained
2 cups tomato juice
7 oz Lean Turkey Kielbasa
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp thyme
Rice
Chop the kielbasa in small pieces. Mix all the ingredients in a small
crockpot and heat on low for 2 hours. alternatively, mix the
ingredients in a pot and simmer on the stove on medium for 30 minutes.
Serve 1 cup of beans and sausage over 1 cup of rice.
This is also a cheap meal. The tomato juice cost 50 cents. The beans
were 45 cents a can and I bought the whole 14 oz kielbasa on sale for
1.99. I only used 1/2 of it. So that comes to $2.40 for the whole
recipe. Which is 40 cents a serving. Plus about 15 cents a serving (or
less) for a cup of cooked rice. So a serving of beans and sausage on
top of a cup of brown rice is 55 cents. Even if you are extra hungrgy
and eat 2 servings, that is still $1.10.
