Vikki's Red Bean Sausage

By: Victoria Caylor

"I went to a great restaurant in Savannah one summer and had red beans and rice. When I came home, I tried to figure out just how they made it. I haven't figured it out exactly, but this recipe is a pretty good imitation. Serve with hot white rice, fried potatoes, and cornbread if desired."

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound smoked sausage of your choice, sliced
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
2 (15 ounce) cans dark red kidney beans
1 (15 ounce) can light red kidney beans
2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes

Directions

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add sausage and onion and saute until onions are translucent. Add bell pepper, garlic, parsley, paprika, cayenne pepper and ground black pepper. Saute all together, stirring occasionally, until bell pepper is a little tender (about 10 minutes).
