Questions & Replies

  1. I'm looking for the SMOKED SAUSAGE JAMBALAYA I made for the family all through their junior high, senior high and into collage.. It sounded a lot like this recipe. Does anyone know the annual cookbook this came from?. I'm a Papa with 5 grandkids to introduce to this dish.

  1. My husband and I love jambalaya with smoked sausage. We usually make it with chicken but this was very good with ground beef. It was easy to make and my family sure liked it. The garlic and green onion made this very savory in flavor. Great job. Nurse Di, we love your recipes and hope you never stop posting them.
     
  2. This was very easy and so good! I pretty much followed the recipe, but instead of the salt and pepper I put in a tbsp of cajun seasoning. I didn't have green onions so I used a yellow onion chopped up. It is right up there with some of the best Jambalaya that I have ever had!!! Thank you NurseDi!!!
     
  3. Easy and turned out well. I was surprised that there was no seasoning added other than salt an pepper, but the flavor was still good. More economical than recipes that call for shrimp. Everyone ate it and no complaints. I wasn't sure whether the tomatoes were supposed to be drained, but I didn't drain them and it was perfect (mine were diced).
     
  4. This is a really good recipe!!!! Thank you so much for sharing. To incorporate my family's taste I changed it a bit. Because we love jambalya I doubled the recipe ingredients except I did not use the ground beef. Instead I substituted 1 pound of ham cubes, 1 pound of large shrimp, 1/2 pound cooked chicken. I sauted these in olive oil before I threw it in with the rest of the ingredients Added 1 Tablespoon of Cajun seasoning and 1/2 teaspoon cumin and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne. My family loved it.
     
  5. Came out great! I did like someone else and instead of ground beef I used some kidney beans at the end. I also substituted chicken broth for the water. I used red bell pepper and halved the recipe which still seemed to be atleast 4-5 servings. And for some spiciness instead of salt and pepper I used a cajun seasoning and some Emeril's Essence. We like things spicy!!!! Oh and used yellow onion in lieu of the green onion. Glad I can make this from scratch instead of buying the box for jambalaya. May add some shrimp next time at the end.....
