You will need:
1 can of black beans (soup size)
1 ring of kielbasa, turkey or pork whichever you prefer
Yellow rice, comes in a tube (see pic below)
ground cumin
Cajun seasoning
pepper
garlic salt
olive oil
worcestershire sauce
First, take the kielbasa and cut it into bite size pieces. Then, in a good size (medium to large) skillet, heat 3 Tbs of olive oil and add the sausage to it. Add a generous amount of worcestershire sauce (1/4 cup maybe) to the sausage and cook over medium heat. While it's cooking, liberally sprinkle cumin and cajun seasoning over it, maybe 1 or 2 tsps of each. Toss the sausage and make sure all pieces get coated with worcestershire and spices. Let this cook until nice and crispy brown, about 10 minutes.

nice and crispy. It's so hard not to eat all these by myself!
Once the sausage is done, scoop it out and try and leave some of the oil in the pan. Pour the black beans into the pan. I know some folks rinse their beans but I just dump the whole thing in and cook it all up. Over medium heat cook the beans for about 20 minutes, adding cumin, cajun seasoning and garlic salt. Be careful here because your cajun seasoning may have salt in it so taste your beans before you add the garlic salt.
While the beans are cooking, prepare the rice according to the package directions. I do this in the microwave so I don't have too many pots on the stovetop. The rice and beans should be done around the same time. When they're done, combine it all together. Yes, it's not much to look at but it is damn good!
Being mixed...
Ready to eat!
I know it's not pretty but it really is tasty. Anyone I've ever fixed this for has loved it! I hope you do, too!

Yum! Sausage, beans, and rice is one of the only things I can cook that everyone in the house will actually eat.
Wow, that's awesome! My kids won't even think about it. This recipe makes up a ton, too, so DH and I are eating it for days and freezing some when we can't eat more!
Mmmm...some of my favorite things. Sounds like a pot of this will get us through until we leave on Sunday if I make it tomorrow!
I miss seeing you daily eats posts, Evie!

Hey Jess,
This makes a huge amount and will definitely carry you through Sunday!
Re: my daily eating posts
I'm feeling really bad that I haven't been doing it but lately my habits have been so bad and scattered that I didn't think anyone would be interested. When I eat something yummy I post it but I know I should get back to the original purpose of this blog, otherwise I'm just another foodie face in the crowd.
I promise I'm going to make a concerted effort to post more frequently!
