Most of the time, I cook for the four of us. But, from time to time. my husband and I will sit and eat a meal without the boys. When that happens, I take the opportunity to make some of the meals that we enjoy or pull out recipes the boys don’t really like.

But, if I am not having to cook a big meal for the four of us, I certainly don’t want to spend a ton of time in the kitchen. So I have learned little tricks to put together some of our favorite meals without a ton of effort.

My recipe for Red Beans And Rice For Two is the perfect combination of great taste that’s quick and easy. Instead of taking the time to steam up rice and cook beans for hours, I use Minute Ready to Serve Rice and canned beans to whip up a fantastic meal that’s ready in a flash.

I can have this meal on the table in under 30 minutes. The flavor is amazing and is clean-up is quick and easy…everything cooks in one pan.

So why would I want to wait 20 + minutes for rice when I can enjoy perfect rice that’s ready in just ONE minute. Minute Ready to Serve Rice is perfect for a variety of recipes or even as a tasty meal that you can enjoy right from the cup!

While my recipe below is designed for two, you can easily double or triple it to fit your needs. It’s a great weeknight option and especially nice for a crisp fall night.

The spice level of my recipe is about a medium. If you want it on the mild side, go with a regular smoked sausage and reduce the creole seasoning and hot sauce a bit. We like to kick it up even more…so I sprinkle a little extra seasoning on top when I serve AND put the hot sauce on the table…just in case we need even more heat. We like it spicy here!!
