I never made jambalaya before. This recipe was amazing. It was spicy. I followed the directions almost exactly. I added a little more tomato sauce to the dish. I probably had more meat and shrimp. My DH said it is a keeper. Just a note- Rotel makes a mild version of tomatoes w/chillis. Thanks for the recipe.

After having the first bite of this Jambalaya I fell in love for the second time (Shhh, don't tell my boyfriend). This has got to be one of the best things I have ever tasted. The balance of flavors were perfect and it was spicy and delicious and we both loved it so much we fought over the leftovers! Dan, you can come over and have this with us anytime I make it. I so appreciate that you saved it here for us Auntie. A true gem!
