Hi Friends! I’m sharing this heart healthy dish with you in memory of my mom. Beans, rice, and cornbread was her favorite meal and it didn’t matter what kind of beans .

She passed away in July of 2010 due to heart disease.
I hope you enjoy this dish! As always my recipes are a guide. Feel free to tweak it to make it your own. As a side note, you can use any type of meat: andouille sausage, ham hocks, pork neck bones, or turkey legs or wings.

Peace!
