Mardi gras is coming up this weekend, and that makes me think of this Slow Cooker Louisiana-Style Red Beans and Rice, a recipe I've been making for years and years now. Red Beans and Rice has a surge of popularity every so often on the blog, and if you've never tried it this would be a fun one to make over the weekend, even if you don't have any Mardi Gras beads! I also love
