This sounds easy enough for me to make. I like beans but I'm not fond of rice, so I could just eat it as soup. The crock pot is my new best friend. This would feed a bunch of my friends and not cost too much. That is a good thing.


One of my favorites,,, In LA they serve beans and rice everyday in the country store I worked at,and any other store that serves dinners. Your recipe has all the stuff in it that makes the pot good.


Thanks for the comments ladies. I love 'em. Snuffle, you can put beans over a baked potato or noodles if you prefer.


I had to add this to my faves.
Thanks for the recipe.
