Ingredients: This is a combination of two Southern classics: red-eye gravy and red beans and rice. I have tried to stay true to the New Orleans style of red beans and rice, wherein creamy, savory beans are served over separately-prepared rice. This dish was my favorite of this submission, wonderfully rich with bits of crispy, blackened bacon and fresh bell pepper adding another level of texture to the experience. - 4 strips of bacon - 3 stalks of celery - 3-4 cloves garlic - 1 medium onion - 1 bell pepper - 1 can kidney beans - 1 can red beans - 1.5 cups brown rice - freshly-brewed coffee
