Chop onion, bell pepper, garlic, and celery into small pieces. Drain beans in colander.
Pour beans into a large pot or dutch oven. Add enough water to generously cover them (about 3 inches above beans - approximately 4 cups total).
In a frying pan on medium heat, drizzle enough olive oil to coat the pan (approximately ¼ cup). Add onions and cook until clear. Add garlic and cook for another minute, then add bell pepper and celery along with dry spices. Stir until flavors release and then add the mixture to the pot of beans.
Heat until almost boiling, stir, and then turn burner to low. Add bay leaves and cover.
Check on beans every 30min to 1hr to stir in flavors and make sure there is still enough water to be absorbed. Add more water if needed. Cook for 2-3 hours.
When beans begin to get creamy and are close to being finished, cook the jasmine rice in a pressure cooker. Add pre-cooked and sliced andouille sausage to the beans. You can smash some of the beans on the side of the pot to increase the creamy consistency or use a stick blender to blend a very small portion, then stir.
Prepare beans by scooping them into a bowl with the sausage. Add rice to the top and garnish with green onions. Serve warm with Louisiana Hot Sauce drizzled on top (if desired). Enjoy!

Notes
Note: If you want to bring this dish to the next level, pick up some good cajun andouille sausage from your local meat market! If it's not pre-cooked, you will have to adjust cooking times accordingly.
