Zatarain'sRed Beans & Rice, 8 oz

If you're a fan of red beans and rice and don't have time to make it from scratch, this is by far the best box version out there. Add some diced chicken thighs or some andouille sausage for a great meal. Maybe serve with some cornbread if you're feeling fancy.

Very tasty rice, quick easy meal! My family love it with Hillshire kielbasa sausage added to it!

I've continued to buy these beans and rice. So easy to make. Can add whatever ingredients you want to jazz it up. A quality brand and fantastic flavor. And how inexpensive!

This rice dish is a quick and easy option for weeknight dinners. It cooks up nicely, with a good texture and fluffiness that pairs well with chicken, vegetables, or on its own. I like the convenience of having a ready-to-cook meal in the pantry. However, I found the flavor to be a bit bland. It could use more seasoning or spices to make it more exciting. I often find myself adding extra herbs or a pinch of salt to enhance the taste. Despite this, it’s a solid base for a meal, especially when you’re short on time.

First time trying the red beans and rice from Zatarains, but I've always loved their seasonings so this was delicious

I swear by this brand. Plain and simple. .Follow the directions and don't eye ball measurements and such. It affects the flavor and dilutes it if you don't.

Wonderfully spiced Red Beans & Rice that can be stretched to be a complete meal by adding sautéed onion, diced tomatoes, black beans, cooked sausage, along with chipotle & a bit of cayenne pepper. Or make as directed from the box as a good side dish (mild spiced). Top with cheddar cheese and sour cream. Totally Yum!

The price and quality were decent but too salty tasting for my own palette.
