Introduction
Some stuff I threw together to clean out the fridge. The sausage I used was already cooked. If yours is raw, you can cook it through in the last step.

Ingredients
-
1 tbsp Olive Oil
4 Chicken andouille style sausage (I used Gilberts)
1 Med onion, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
5 celery stalks- cleans and chopped
2 large peppers (red or green), seeded and chopped
2 cans of beans, cleaned and drained (I used 1 can kidney, 1 can black)
1 tbsp cayenne
1 tbsp cajun blend
Tips
For a yummy, filling vegan option, just skip the sausage and add 1/2 tsp cajun seasoning.
I DIY my cajun seasoning:
3 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons fine kosher salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground white pepper
1 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon cayenne
1/2 tablespoon dried thyme
Directions
Add oil to dutch oven and heat until shimmering on med. Add whole sausage links and brown, occasionally shifting sides, until browned all over. Remove and slice into coins, leave oil in the pan.
Add onion and season with S&P and a bit of the spices. When softened, add garlic, saute for a minute, until fragrant and not burned. Add veggies and the rest of the spices, stir and saute for a few minutes. Add beans, sausage slices and 1/2c water (or stock, or beer). Stir, bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, partially cover and cook for 20 minutes.
Serve on its own, over rice or with cornbread.
