Directions: |
Directions: Mix all ingredients except parsley in a crockpot and add water until barely covered. For kidney beans, cook 8 hrs on high. For red beans, cook 6 hrs on high. Add parsley midway.
Check during last 2 hrs. If beans are soft, they are done.
Serve in bowls over cooked rice with extra hot sauce and some Dixieland Chow Chow on the side. You can also top bowls with green onion tops for an elegant look |

Notes: Busy Family Friendly This family favorite was the first Cajun dish I learned to make. It works well in the slow cooker and is ready when you get home from work. Cook the rice, make a green salad, and serve with a good French Bread. You're done!
Love to all, Mimi
