Slow Cooker Coconut Red Beans and Rice Recipe
Its the 24th of May, and it is STILL COLD OUTSIDE.
dude. this is getting old.
Im trying my hardest to not complain, and to instead pretend its tropical outside. It looks like in order to have a somewhat-tropical environment this holiday weekend, Im going to have to crank up the thermostat and inflate some plastic palm trees.
or I could just eat some leftover coconut red beans and rice.
The Ingredients.
serves 8
1 cup dried small red beans (soaked overnight, then boiled for 10 minutes)
1 large onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 (14.5-ounce) can coconut milk (full fat is best. if you prefer to not use full-fat, add a drop or two of coconut extract to intensify the flavor)
3 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups long grain basmati white rice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 limes, cut in wedges (optional)
The Directions.
Use a 4-quart slow cooker. Sort beans, and soak overnight in a bunch of water. In the morning, drain the water and dump the beans into a large pot of fresh water. Boil rapidly on the stovetop for at least 10 minutes before draining and putting into your crockpot.
Red beans MUST be boiled on the stove before added to the slow cooker to kill a possible toxin that occurs naturally. Want more info? click here.
Add onion, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Pour in the whole can of coconut milk (the creamy stuff, too), and chicken broth. Stir in raw rice and kosher salt. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until beans are bite tender. Before eating, squeeze on a bit of lime juice for a fun tropical twist.
The Verdict.
These are some killer beans. I loved how everything cooked together in one pot, and how coconuty the rice tasted. My grandma took home a big Tupperware and reported back that they froze and reheated quite well (she nuked to reheat).
I used chicken broth because I like the flavor it provides, but if youd prefer to keep your meal purely vegetarian, you should use veggie broth. I dont think water would provide enough impact.

Red and Green Christmas Rice with Bell Peppers Parmesan and Pine Nuts and Happy Holidays!
 |
| Christmas Rice is loaded with flavor from red and green bell pepper, Parmesan, and pine nuts. |
I want to share one more recipe before I take most of next week off the enjoy the holidays with my family, and if you're making any kind of formal dinner this week, I recommend this Christmas Rice with Bell Peppers, Parmesan, and Pine Nuts as the perfect holiday side dish. The rice is loaded with flavor from red and green peppers, thinly sliced green onions, Parmesan, pine nuts, and just the right seasonings. It cooks in the oven (along with your main dish if you'd like) and doesn't require much watching. And of course it's red and green, which is always fun for this time of year. And before I talk more about the recipe, let me wish all my readers and friends a great holiday season, plenty of time with those you love, and lots of delicious food in 2013!

Vegetarian Curried Brown Rice and Broccoli Casserole with Creamy Curry Sauce
 |
| A layered casserole with curried brown rice, broccoli, a creamy curry sauce, and just enough low-fat cheese! |
Now that I have officially been given the title of Casserole Queen, it seemed fun to challenge myself with creating more meatless casseroles. This Vegetarian Curried Brown Rice and Broccoli Casserole with Creamy Curry Sauce is an idea that just popped into my head one day, although it's definitely a riff on the Better-than-Mom's Chicken, Broccoli, and Quinoa Casserole with Creamy Curry Sauce that I made nearly two years ago. Once I had the idea in mind, it actually took Jake and I three tries to get this one just right (although we happily gobbled up the first two tries as well.)
