SLOW COOKER SHRIMP & SAUSAGE JAMBALAYA

Slow Cooker Shrimp & Sausage Jambalaya image

This is very easy and wonderful to come home to after a long day at work. Even after cooking for 8 hours the vegetables are crisp and tasty. I use 1 tablespoon bayou blast (emeril) instead of red pepper sauce and turkey kielbasa for the sausage. I cook my rice in a rice-cooker. My teenagers say it is the best meal that I make. What an easy & tasty dinner this is!

SLOW-COOKER JAMBALAYA RISOTTO

Slow-Cooker Jambalaya Risotto image

I love risotto, but I don't always love the time and stirring it takes to get the creamy goodness. I found a slow-cooker risotto recipe and thought it was too good to be true. I decided to adapt a jambalaya recipe for this dish. -Angela Westra, Cambridge, Massachusetts
