4 stalks celery, sliced

2 tsp or 1 Tbsp Tony Chachere's Cajun Seasoning
2 cups rice (uncooked)
2 - 14oz cans S&W Organic Fire Roasted Tomatoes (can use plain if not available)
3 - 14oz cans red beans

Heat olive oil in large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, celery, green pepper - stir and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add Sausage and continue stirring while you add the spices. When meat is browned, add rice and stir so the spices and juices are mixed with the rice. Add the tomatoes & beans, and 4 cans of water using the tomato can. Bring to a boil and simmer on medium-low heat for 20 minutes or until rice is cooked.

Add more Tony Chachere's Cajun Seasoning as needed.
