"This is very easy and wonderful to come home to after a long day at work. Even after cooking for 8 hours the vegetables are crisp and tasty. I use 1 tablespoon bayou blast (emeril) instead of red pepper sauce and turkey kielbasa for the sausage. I cook my rice in a rice-cooker. My teenagers say it is the best meal that I make. What an easy & tasty dinner this is!"

  1. This is not even close to a recipe for jambalaya! It's more like a shrimp creole. FYI -- jambalaya is a rice dish, i.e., it's rice cooked with stuff so that the flavors of the stuff become part of the rice. Jambalaya is NOT stewed stuff served over rice. Do your culinary research, please. That being said, this does sound like a tasty recipe.

  2. I have been making this recipe often for several months now, but forgot to put in a review. This is a fantastic recipe! My entire family loves it. I like to add 3-4 chicken breast halves (cubed) to make it more substantial meal. So easy...just add everything to the crock pot and let it do it's thing. Definitely worth trying. Thanks!

  3. I will continue using this recipe as a great base for crockpot jambalaya. However, there were a couple of key modifications I had to make for this dish to be a success as jambalaya. When prepared as written (with the undrained tomatoes), this came out very liquid for me. I undercooked two cups of rice on the stovetop and added them to the crock for about 30 minutes and everything thickened up beautifully. In the future I think I would drain the tomatoes to see if that improves the consistency for the recipe as it's written. Additionally, I had to add the recommended tablespoon of Cajun seasoning (I used one purchased in New Orleans) and I still needed to add additional hot sauce to give the dish the right punch.

  4. Made it as listed used Rotel and turkey sausage and it turned out wonderful.Even my picky son loved it and I hate shrimp but added it to this one for my wife with the intent of picking it out of mine,but I actually liked it.The shrimp soaked up all the yummy juice and is the only shrimp I've ever eatten that I liked.Thanks for sharing

I have been a member of recipezaar and food.com for years. This is definitely my go-to place for recipes and love that I can have all my individual cookbooks to sort and store recipes. ? I like to experiment when I cook and find that I rarely follow a recipe as it is written. I am also pretty health conscious and try to cook low-fat for regular everyday meals (you can't skimp on the rich stuff for holiday meals & treats!). I also avoid processed foods and use fresh wholesome ingredients whenever possible.
