Red Beans and Rice

What do you do when you are hungry, craving something warm and filling, it's between shopping trips and your pantry is low on supplies and about all you have to work with is a sad stalk of celery, half an onion left over from yesterday, 1/4 of a jar of salsa and some left over brown rice... you hunt up a can of light red kidney beans and you make Red Beans and Rice!


I took all of the above ingredients, chopped the onion and celery, sauteed them for a bit, added the rest of the ingridents plus about 1/4 cup of water and cooked until water was absorbed, about 3 minutes.  I added a little Daiya cheese cheese on top that I had stashed in the freezer and called it good.  My belly is full and heart is thanking me.
