Ham and Shrimp Jambalaya image

This delightfully different jambalaya is lighter than many of the traditional sausage varieties. Plus, it's a great way to use up leftover ham. I appreciate how easy it is to prepare, and I love the aroma while it's cooking.

Tips:

  • Season to taste: The amount of salt and pepper you add to your dish will depend on your personal preferences. Taste the dish as you go and adjust the seasonings accordingly.
