JAMBALAYA, CHICKEN/PEPPERONI
My own recipe on a creole favorite. So, most eveyone says "Pepperoni!?" Of course pepperoni. It is absolutely perfect in Jambalaya. The taste of pepperoni is just a beautiful match for the taste of the cayene peppers and tobasco sauce. Oh, I just love this dish. You have got to try it!

QUICK JAMBALAYA
This recipe makes quick work out of jambalaya by using leftover rice, and it tastes great with freshly cooked grains, too. To make this meal meatless, use vegan andouille sausage or stick with pork sausage, if you prefer. Either option, along with creole seasoning and the classic trinity of creole cooking - onion, celery and green bell pepper - result in a dish that is unmistakably Louisianan. Though many jambalaya recipes skip tomatoes, this version uses a blend of tomato paste and diced tomatoes to add bulk, and an acidity that helps lighten up the otherwise hearty one-pot meal.
