Yum yum yum!! I left out the bell peppers because my family has texture issues and added leftover Thanksgiving Turkey. So good. The green pepper Tabasco Sauce sneaks up on you but we are a spicy-loving family. Thanks for posting a simple Jambalaya recipe...all the other ones I've found look complicated. I will be making this often!

I live in Sugar Land, Texas. I love to try new recipes. My husband jokes that if he likes something, I never make it again for 6 months! My children are very picky, but do have their favorites that I try to include in our menu more often than every 6 months.
