Beans and Rice with Sausage

Thanks for checking back at Pure Homemaking, I hope you make yourself at home!

I’ve had opposition to this meal before. In the past.  I wasn’t sure how to put it all together, what seasoning to use, when to season-do you season the rice, or the beans, or wait until it’s all together to season it? Do I need to add vegetables or just leave it as is? Well, I’ve made this so many times and it always manages to turn out right so I’ll tell you what I did last night. This can be varied quite a bit so keep it in mind.

The most important thing is the base of the meal. The beans. The rice. The meat. You don’t absolutely have to add meat as this meal really has a lot of protein on its own, so feel free to skip it if you want. But it’s more filling and dare I say more flavorful if you add sausage to it.

Super fast Gingered Chicken and Rice

This was really good! I had decided to make chicken and rice at the last-minute because I remembered that I had some left over chicken from making broth the other day that I needed to use up.

I really prefer having the dark part of the chicken for things like chicken and rice because I think it has more flavor.

So this was super simple, fast and good! Great combination right! Great for a I have no time but must make dinner weekday meal. The only thing that you might not have on hand in the ginger. But you must have it for gingered chicken and rice. Other wise it would just be plain old chicken and rice. Which is good, don’t get me wrong. But this was special because of the ginger.
