Instant Pot NOLA Red Beans and Rice

Name: Instant Pot NOLA Red Beans and Rice
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 40 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups water; 1 cup uncooked rice; 1 (16 ounce) package turkey kielbasa, cut diagonally into 1/4 inch slices; 1 onion, chopped; 1 green bell pepper, chopped; 1 clove chopped garlic; 2 (15 ounce) cans canned kidney beans, drained; 1 (16 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, chopped; ½ teaspoon dried oregano; ½ teaspoon pepper; salt to taste

This is an easy red beans and rice recipe that is a delicious take on a Louisiana classic. It can be prepared and cooked in 40 minutes! I use turkey kielbasa to cut down on the fat, but not the flavor. Season with hot pepper sauce if you like.
