Spring Break Jambalaya

My first night of Spring Break...and I made Jambalaya.

Always a NOLA favorite when we visit....and it turned out fabulous!

• 2 cups each, cooked ham and cajun sausage - chopped into cubes

• 1/2 stick butter

• 1 onion, chopped

• 1 bell pepper, chopped

• 2 stalks celery, chopped

• 2 tsp.'s garlic, minced

• 1 can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained

• 2 tbs. Worcestershire sauce

• 1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce

• 3 cups water

• 1 1/2 tbs. creole seasoning

• 2 cups raw brown rice

 On medium heat, melt butter in large pan and add onion, bell pepper,

celery, and garlic, and sauté for 5 minutes.

Add tomatoes, stir and cook for 5 more minutes.

Add chopped cooked ham / sausage and creole seasoning

and simmer for 5 minutes.

Add tomato sauce , Worcestershire sauce, and water and bring to a boil.

Lower heat, add rice, stir and cover and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes,

stirring occasionally.

Bon Appétit!

Wonder what I will cook next?

I am dying to make Cinnamon Roll Pancakes...but may have to wait

heading to work?!?!?
