Cajun-style Vegan Red Beans And Rice
  1. Set aside.

  2. In a large pot over medium heat, add oil. When hot, add onion, bell pepper and celery. Cook vegetables until tender and slightly browned, about 8-10 minutes. Add garlic; cook for one more minute, until fragrant.

  3. Stir in parsley, hot sauce, thyme, paprika, salt and pepper; stir to evenly coat the vegetables in the spices. Cook for one minute.

  4. Pour in kidney beans, bay leaves and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil; cover, lower heat and simmer for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove lid; let simmer uncovered for 15 minutes.

  5. While the beans are cooking, prepare rice according to package directions.

  6. When the beans are ready, scoop about ¼ of the beans in a blender or food processor; blend until smooth. Return to pot; add liquid smoke (if using). Stir

  7. And a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
