I made these tonight, 7/1/25 for dinner. Had to make a substitution. My local grocery store didn’t have the Ben’s original Red beans and Rice, so I used Zataran’s instead. I doubled this recipe….omfg was this ABSOLUTELY DYNAMITE!!! EVERYONE LOVE IT AND I TOPPED OFF WITH GRATED PARMESAN CHEESE WITH 2 MINS LEFT IN OVEN BEFORE SERVING!!
