The beans are simmered with aromatic onions and garlic until tender, creating a rich base for the chunks of juicy sausage to soak up all the delicious flavors.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups dry black beans, soaked overnight
  • 1 lb turkey sausage, cut into chunks
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1 cup water
  • Salt
  • Brown Rice, cooked

Instructions

  • Soak black beans over night.
  • The next day, drain and rinse the beans. In a large pot or crock pot add beans and cover with water and stock. Add the diced onion, minced cloves of garlic, and bay leaves.
