Mama C's Jambalaya image

Good spicy stuff! You can vary this by subbing 1 cup of chicken, turkey, sausage or shrimp for 1 cup of the ham. The better quality the ham you use, the better tasting the jambalaya. You can use any commercial creole seasoning mix, or use my creole seasoning recipe and make your own.
