CREOLE SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE



Creole Shrimp and Sausage image

I came up with this one after looking around for something to make for dinner. I found a few recipes that I didn't have all of the ingredients to make so I fudged it and made this little gem instead. It has a little bit of heat, so add more Creole seasoning to taste. It kind of reminds me of a different take on jambalaya. Enjoy!
