What To Serve With Louisiana-Style Red Beans & Rice

Paired with fluffy white rice, this meal is hearty comfort food all on its own. That being said, if you’re looking for easy sides to serve with this main, you can’t go wrong with some homemade cornbread, air fryer okra, Southern collard greens, or pimiento cheese corn muffins.
