Crock-Pot Jambalaya-Pastalaya

Leah's Kitchen's Note:

I have yet to try this recipe but it looks pretty good. I got it off of a website called realcajunrecipes.com. It calls for noodles but you can obviously use rice instead if you like. Posted for ZWT5

This is so deliciously authentic tasting! Made as directed, except that I forgot to add the chicken! I have two photos because I like mine a bit dry (rice showing) and DH likes his the consistency of stew -- this recipe accommodates both styles! Thanks, Leah''s Kitchen!
