frozen to fluffy as it steams in the microwave. Find it in the frozen food aisle.


We use a slow cooker to cook the Slow Cooker Cajun Red Beans and Rice on page 40, but you can also simmer them (or any bean) on the stove. Place soaked and drained beans in a large Dutch oven.

Drain, cool, and freeze in 1½-cup portions (the size of a standard can) to use anytime.
