Savory Slow Cooker Beans With Rice

Let this savory bean dish cook all day and have dinner ready when you get home from work.

If you want to skip the first step, you can soak dry beans overnight in a large pot of water.

These slow cooker beans get great flavor from celery, garlic, and diced green chiles.

Served with brown rice, they make a complete vegetarian meal. Sprinkle with cilantro if desired, or top with sliced avocado or a spoonful of plain Greek yogurt.
