Rinse and sort beans. Mix beans, rice, onion, jalapenos, and water into crock-pot. Cook on low for 8.5 hours.2
Add lime juice, cilantro, tomatoes, corn, and cheese. At this time also add 1/3 cup of desired cajun seasoning (Tony's, Emeril's, Luzianne, ect.). I use Lusianne, bcause it has less sodium. Continue cooking for another 30 minute.3
Serve warm by itself or, wrapped in a flour tortilla like a burrito, or serve with tortilla chips like a dip.4
Add a dab of sour cream and/or guacamole for color, texture, and taste.

Very satisfying meal. We had it without the cheese and served it with fresh homemade guacamole and tortilla chips. This does make a lot of food so plan accordingly.

This is delicious! I used Tony's creole seasoning; don't forget it as it is not in the igredients list. I also added a red chili with the jalapeno peppers, and it has a nice heat. After reading another review, I used less of each of the beans and rice, but still ended up filling my 6 quart slow cooker right to maximum capacity! Quantities as described would be great for a party; use less for a family. Excellent and easy!

The amount of beans and rice should both be cut in half (8oz of each). I ended up with two HUGE crocks worth after having to add water four times. I didn't notice the seasoning, since it wasn't in the ingredient list and left it out. It was bland as a result. But it was very good and will be even better next time with the seasoning. Thanks for sharing!
