Ingredients

    1 lb. red beans, washed and drained
    1 clove garlic, minced
    3 c. red wine
    1 c. water
    1 TB Worcestershire sauce
    2 tsp. Louisiana hot sauce
    2 slices bacon, diced
    celery, chopped
    6 cups cooked brown rice

Directions

** Veggie was the closest, but as written this dish contains bacon. The bacon is easily omitted for a vegetarian meal.***

Marinate beans in wine, water, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce overnight. Next day, cook bacon until crisp. Drain bacon grease. Add the celery and the bean mixture to a crock pot w/ the bacon. Cook on high for 6 hours in the crock pot. If beans begin to appear dry, add more water.

When beans are done to desired tenderness add salt (not before!) and serve over the cooked rice.

Makes 8 generous servings (about 1-1.5 cups each-- but I divide the whole recipe into 8 after making it.)
