Spaghetti Jambalaya / Pastalaya image

One of my favorite meals, is Jambalaya. This is a twist to the original recipe, but very enjoyable. As always, cajun cooking is a slower process, not to be rushed. Part of the fun is cooking outside, with friends, talking and laughing waiting on the meal.

Steps:

  • 1. Cut pork and smoked sausage into bite size pieces. Season pork with Tony Chacheries Creole Seasoning.

Continue to cook until onions turn clear and liquids cook out of onions and peppers. This is a slower process but well worth the wait for the flavor that is produced.
