    Ingredients
      

    • 1 pound dry kidney beans or small red beans, rinsed and sorted

    • 1 large onion, chopped

    Instructions

    • Soak the beans overnight in water.
    • Drain and rinse beans and add fresh water to a depth twice as deep as the beans.
    • Bring the beans to a boil and cook for about an hour or until tender, checking the water level periodically and adding water if needed.
    • After the beans have softened up and are getting close to being done, add the rest of the ingredients. Simmer the beans, sausage, and vegetables for about a half an hour longer, or until the beans are tender.
    • Serve over rice.

    Notes

    Plan ahead since the beans need to soak. In a pinch you can use 3-4 cans of beans.
    If your pot is large enough, you can cook extra dried beans to stock the freezer.
