Bring a Taste of The Big Easy to YOUR Kitchen!

I may be the one whos living it up eating my way through The Big Easy this weekend, but I wanted to take time to share some of my very favorite New Orleans-inspired dishes that Ive posted in here in the past. All you have to do to have a taste of New Orleans in YOUR house is to get in the kitchen and whip up one of these recipes this weekend! If you like your food on the spicy side, Ive got you covered, my friend. 

How about some gumbo? I featured this Gumbo Ya Ya, flavored with chicken and spicy andouille sausage in the first year of my blog, so forgive the  grainy picture! This is seriously good eating, yall! Although I love seafood gumbo, chicken-sausage gumbo is much more economical for everyday eating. By starting with prepared roux in a jar, this gumbo is ready to eat in just over an hour.


One of my favorite meals to feed a crowd is my Kitchen Sink Jambalaya. It features spicy ham, andouille sausage, chicken, and shrimp...and a lot of spicy Cajun seasonings. This is the dish that I cooked the first time I appeared on Great Day SA to cook, so I promise that its a winner.


Finally, heres my Texas-Creole Crawfish Potato Salad...which was featured as part of the July 4th #SundaySupper. Its a unique spin on traditional potato salad. Its flavored with Creole mustard, lots of bacon, and crawfish tails. This recipe was featured by Zatarains on their Facebook fan page, which was a huge honor!


Ill be back from New Orleans with a new post on Monday as part of this months Secret Recipe Club reveal. Heres a hint: with football season starting, youre going to want to serve this appetizer recipe at all your game-watching parties and tailgates!
