I have always been a big fan of Jambalaya but had never tried cooking it myself. I found a recipe off one of my favorite blogging sites, Stephanie Cooks. We have the exact same type of tastes and I try her recipes often. This was a another good one. It was simple to prepare, cook, very healthy, and tasted great. I will in the future try other types of jamabalya recipes that also incorporate Andouille sausage, but this was definitely a great recipe to start my jambalaya journey.
