      Title: PASTA WITH CREOLE SAUCE
 Categories: Main dish, Pasta, Vegetarian
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
     16 oz Red kidney beans, canned
           Drained and rinsed
      2 ea Bay leaves
  1 1/2 c  Onions, diced
    1/3 c  Dry red wine
    1/2 c  Green bell pepper, thinly
           Sliced
      2 c  Canned tomato puree
      1 tb Garlic, minced
      1 tb Oregano, dried
      1 tb Thyme, dried
    1/8 ts Cayenne
      1 ts Rice wine vinegar
      8 oz Pasta
           Salt & pepper to taste
 
  Prepare the pasta per directions on the package. In a medium sauce
  pan, braise the onions in the red wine over medium high heat. When
  onions are soft, add the green pepper. Before peppers are completely
  softened, add the tomatoes, garlic, oregano, thyme, and two bay
  leaves.
  
  Stew all this together for 20 to 25 minutes.
  
  Add kidney beans, cayenne, and the rice wine vinegar. Add salt and
  pepper to taste.  Stir well and allow to heat through. Serve sauce
  over pasta or rice.
  
  NOTES: I did not braise onions but sauteed them with the garlic in a
  little olive oil.  I did not have puree so I used 16 oz can of diced
  tomatoes processed in a food processor and added an 8 oz can of
  tomato sauce. I brought the sauce to a boil, lowered heat and cooked
  for about 1 1/2 hours.
