1. In large skillet heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat.
2. Toss in diced peppers and onions. Season to taste with black pepper, cayenne pepper and garlic. Saute 2-3 minutes. Meanwhile, begin preparing brown rice according to package directions.
3. Toss in diced turkey sausage. Saute approximately five minutes or until just beginning to brown.
4. Add beans without draining. Toss in bay leaves and a few more dashes of pepper and garlic to taste. Turn heat to medium/low and simmer for 5-10 minutes. It is important to not drain beans. They will need the juices from the cans for simmering.
