I think the chopped celery should be added towards the end of the cooking time or else it will cook out. This dish was delicious and healthy. I'm looking forward to preparing it again.

I didn't have the seasonings that were called for but I did have the Mrs. Dash steak seasoning and I used that -- it was very good! (And I don't usually like red beans).
