Jamaican Red Beans & Rice Soup
**Ok this was seriously good and simple and so quick to make. Although I had to use a cajun seasoning instead of a jerk seasoning because I could not find jerk seasoning anymore but it was still so good and had a bit of a kick to it!**
2 bacon slices, cut crosswise into thin strips
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 small)
2 (14 oz) cans fat free, less sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons Jamaican jerk seasoning
1 (16 oz) can red beans; rinsed and drained
1 (8.8 oz) package microwaveable pre-cooked whole grain brown rice (you know those 90 second packet ones)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Cook bacon and onion in large sauce pan over medium heat 2 until cooked. Stir in chicken broth and seasoning. Add beans bring to boil and then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Stir in rice cook an additional 3 minutes. Serve topped with fresh cilantro
(seriously so good!)
