Description

There is nothing better than a big bowl of Jambalaya on a cold Sunday evening. This recipe is so easy to throw into the slow cooker and while it cooks you can curl up with a good book. I warn you though, the smell of it might make you forget what you are reading. You can make this recipe even spicier by adding a bit of hot sauce (just a drop or two) right before you serve it. Dig in and enjoy!

This is more of a creole style jambalaya than the cajun jambalaya most people are familiar with. This one uses tomatoes and is very saucy. A typical cajun jambalaya does not use tomatoes and is drier. Personally I prefer the cajun style jambalaya but this one is very good. It’s very easy and it does make the house smell great. It has just the right amount of heat. The measurements of this recipe are spot on. Goes great with fresh bread.
