 Topic: Pretty good cheater Jambalaya
Posted: 04 Mar 2020 at 7:51pm |

An ole boy gave me a recipe for jambalaya.
Use two packs of Knorrs red beans and rice.
Brown two 14 oz packs of hilshire farms kielbasa’s with one purple onion and one medium bell pepper. Add Tony C’s to taste.
Boil 4 cups of water and 2 tbl spoons of olive oil add in the two packs of knorrs mix in the browned sausages and onion.
Let boil a couple minutes then turn on low and let simmer until rice is tender.
Jenny even liked it.

I built a house for some folks from Louisiana a few years back. The owners wife made jambalaya for my crew when we were done. I’ve been hooked ever since.
Last night was close as I’ve got.

I got my recipe from my buddy's mother who lives in Slidell, LA. It's darn good. Use chicken thighs and smoked sausage, the holy trinity, diced tomatoes, garlic and rice. Made a batch a week ago for Fat Tuesday and fed 75 people at work.

You betcha,,Thad,,,!! I'll bet I use up a jar of Tony's every month or so,,,, You might use too much but I ain't got to thet point yet,,,, I remember I got to go to a convention in New Orleans 3 times when I was still workin and man was I in 7th heaven!! We was eating at a nice cafe down in the french Quarter and ther was this dude that looked like he just come in from the swamp, sat next to us and ordered a BIG bowl of Jambalaya,,,he had him some Tony's in one hand and some Louisiana Hot Sauce in the other hand ,,,,all the time shakin both hands into the bowl while he was lookin around and taping his foot,,,,Man,,that made my eyes water just watching him,,,,, |

I don’t know about the Tony’s but all the box meals and canned goods are gone at our local Walmart yesterday. Glad you liked it. I use zaterans often but Jenn says it’s too spicy.

She just got a new ice cream maker.👍
You don’t have to get ice or salt. You freeze the mixing container and that makes the ice cream.
