VIKKI'S RED BEAN SAUSAGE



Vikki's Red Bean Sausage image

I went to a great restaurant in Savannah one summer and had red beans and rice. When I came home, I tried to figure out just how they made it. I haven't figured it out exactly, but this recipe is a pretty good imitation. Serve with hot white rice, fried potatoes, and cornbread if desired.

VICKY'S POTATOES



Vicky's Potatoes image

Vicky was a friend I met while living in Monterey CA. We both ended up moving to the same location in Germany, which is where I first tasted her delicious potato variations. Each version serves about 6-8, but the nutritional facts come out as if you are making both versions, therefore I am listing the number of servings as if you have made both versions at the same time.

Time 45m

Yield 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 potatoes, scrubbed, diced (enough to fill pan)

4 -6 cups frozen hash browns (diced)
2 cups cheese, shredded (she just said lots)
sour cream, to taste
garlic, to taste
parsley, to taste
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Vicky's Potatoes three different ways: All will be cooked in a preheated oven at 450F for 35 minutes; Also, use a 9x13" sized casserole dish.
  • Rosemary Version: Cut up potatoes into bite sized pieces and coat well with olive oil, season with salt & pepper, and sprinkle with rosemary. Bake at a high temp until tender.
  • Cheese Version: Use frozen hash browns, lots of cheese, butter, and just a little sour cream, garlic, salt & pepper, parsley and bake until tender & creamy.
  • Seasoning Packet version: Sometimes Vicky also made a version, using the same cooking temp/time, but just tossed the diced plain potatoes with about 1/2 cup of herb potato seasoning, which comes in a packet.
