The mustard greens are by Picsweet and contain very little sodium.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, flavorful broth, and aromatic spices will make all the difference in your jambalaya.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too many ingredients at once, the vegetables will steam instead of sautéing, and the jambalaya will be mushy.
- Cook the vegetables in stages: This will ensure that they are all cooked evenly and retain their vibrant colors.
- Use a flavorful broth: Chicken, vegetable, or seafood broth will all work well. If you use water, be sure to season it well.
- Add the rice last: This will prevent it from becoming overcooked and mushy.
- Let the jambalaya rest before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
Conclusion:
Vegetable jambalaya is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables, and it can also be made ahead of time and reheated. Whether you are serving it as a main course or a side dish, vegetable jambalaya is sure to please everyone at the table.
