I grew up eating red beans and rice since my mom's from the Baton Rouge area. Her secret to creamy beans is mashing some of the beans (around 1/4 of the batch), it helps them to thicken. I'm now a vegan and had to create a recipe that mimics the flavor without the meat. Sauteing onions and green bell peppers, using lots of garlic and smoked paprika, bay leaves, and using all broth and no water (or water and bullion/better than bullion) are how I get the deep flavor in my beans. I've only made them on the stove since going vegan (I don't have a crock pot, otherwise I'd use that) but you can always saute vegetables then add them to the crockpot. (a little hot sauce ~1tbsp per lb. kicks up the spice)

Yay Stacey!!! I did FPU and paid off 22K in just under 3 years making 21k per year. Found your recipe today, never thought I'd find a Ramsey listener. God bless. Thanks for recipe

Red beans and rice...yes plz. I like mine spicy so I go in with crushed pepper and then roll them up in flour tortillas. BTW. ..you have a wonderful channel and it's gonna be a blessing to a lot of. people. Not too many people are transparent enough to do what you have done and continue to do. I pray for your success in overcoming your debt.

I was trying to figure out how to store my leftover beans👍👍👍 thank u

[wendyslaby]

random suggestion for filling freezer bags, put the bag in a cup and fold the top edges over the top then fill the bag, I do this so it isn't so hard to hold onto.

Usually when I try a red beans and rice recipe without meat I feel like it is missing something...these are delicious though!! I didn’t have the soup base so I used a can of full fat coconut milk. I think the fat makes such a difference when you are used to the richness of a pork/sausage bean recipe. (Coconut fat is arguably a much healthier choice) I also skipped the liquid smoke since I didn’t have that and used chipotle peppers in adobo instead of the roasted bell peppers...just using what was in the pantry. So. Much. Flavor. Will definitely be making this again.

I just want you to know, I've been making this recipe since the day you first posted it and I am obsessed. I have even got my mother into using it. Thanks Stacey!

Good for you! Beans and rice, beans and rice per Dave Ramsey.

[Lesann]

I love these cooking videos!!!! Making me think of my childhood at my Grandma and Pawpaw's and the good soul food we had! I can't wait for next month so I can make a pot of these beans! Thank you so much!

[Breeandfree]

I just made these. I didn’t have liquid smoke but I added in sun dried tomatoes. Delicious!!! If anyone else is wondering these cooked up perfectly in the Instant Pot, using the beans/chili setting for 35 minutes and doing the natural release for 25.

I’m happy I found this. I wasn’t sure if I could cook raw beans in the crock pot. Def making a big batch of Spanish beans!

[i_am_ms.j]

I just came across your channel. I can’t wait to try this!

[Bwatiffany]

I’m making this now! It’s so fragrant!

I'm vegan and I lived in New Orleans. I'm always recreating Creole food for my vegan lifestyle. Try adding liquid smoke I use Wright's it doesn't have carmel color and if you mash some of the beans it will make them creamy. Hope you like it! Just found your channel and I'm really enjoying it!

I had chicken that had cocunut milk as one of the ingredients when cooked in a wok and the sauce came out nice and creamy and that was when I realized how good of an ingredient this can be. Your combination of ingredients is so appealing to me that I am going to try this one. I love crockpot for the reason you can just throw everything in there and set it and forget it. Thank you I appreciate the time you took to share this.☺

[sunnie_allimarie]

Thanks for sharing Stacey! You can also save money by freezing in reusable containers and taking q sustainable approach. I love freezing in small jars as well.

[jessicacraig]

Thank you Stacey I came across your video and decided I would try it.. I have it cooking right now in my crockpot and it smells so good! I can't wait to try them.

[ajarrett]

Ooh, I'll be putting this on my meal plan for next week. It sounds amazing, and I'm always looking for new meatless meals.

[sulli]

they look delicious. definitely a recipe to try, thank you.

[iheartmac]

That looks so good. I make mine with salsa, mild. Or spicy. I make it once a month. And freeze what I don't eat. I cook in bulk. I cook for one but I like to have my freezer full. So, I have healthy home made t.v. dinners.
