As many of you know I am close with my Instant Pot!  Besides my coffee pot and Vitamix it is my most used kitchen appliance!

I have been wanting to try to make Red Beans and Rice in my pot for a while, but couldn’t find a recipe that I liked.  So, as I usually do I took like 3 recipes I found and make one that I felt pretty confident me and the boys would like.

Here it is…

Red Beans and Rice

• 1 pound of dry red kidney beans
• 1 pound of turkey kielbasa or sausage, sliced (I used Wellshire brand Smoked Fresh Turkey Kielbasa)
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped
• 1 1/2 tsp Adobo Seasoning
• 1/2 tsp Chili Powder
• 1/2 tsp Thyme
• 1/4 tsp Cumin
• 5 cups of organic Chicken Stock
• 2 cups cooked rice (I used organic brown rice also made in my Instant Pot)

Put all the ingredients with the exception of the rice into your Instant Pot.  Using the Manual mode set for 30 minutes.  Once done, use a 10 minute natural release then vent the remaining steam.

Serve over 1/2 cup of rice.  This makes about 8 servings- 1 cup each.

This was a big hit with both of the boys.  It has already been requested that I make it again!

Enjoy!!
