INSTRUCTIONS
I just take a regular recipe and leave out the sausage. I'll add a couple chipotles or four to add in a smoky flavour, but if that's too spicy for you, then leave them out. Put the beans in a big pot, add 2 quarts water and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and and simmer, skimming occasionally, for 45 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients and continue cooking until beans are tender and liquid is thick. (Red beans and rice is supposed to be creamy and to get this effect, you should take a potato masher or something and smash down on about 1/3 of the beans). Serve over white rice.
