This was delicious, ElizabethKnicely. And it's so easy to prepare. Baking it in the oven takes a lot of the time-consuming work out of a delicious Jambalaya dinner. I used a mild Andouille sausage, but it still had a bit of a kick to it. I recommend this recipe to anyone. Made for ZWT9 (Cajun/Creole).
