Follow-up to Wednesday's Dinner

I did have plenty Red Beans and Rice from Wednesday, so brought the leftovers to work for me to eat off of for lunch. The leftovers have a bit of "re-fried beans" texture, so I didn't truely enjoy eating the my lunch last week, but I did eat it as we don't have the money for me to go out every day for lunch. Today, I decided that the texture of the rice would be really good with Tortilla Chips, used as a hearty dip. So that's what I'm having for lunch today. It's really not bad :)

oh no no no, this cajun girl cant imagine eating red beans and rice like that ... what helps the "mushiness" is making a meat that makes a good gravy and putting the gravy over the beans and rice- or adding a little water or chicken stock before you reheat it...

but in any case, I am totally with you and needing to out of less and being creative!!

Sorry... I'm a really picky eater and I don't usually eat beans. This was my first time eating anything I made that had beans in it. I'll have to try your suggestions the next time I make it. I'll let you know how it goes :)
