Dairy Free Main Courses Recipe

Easy One Pan Jambalaya

This recipe is one that I found in a family cookbook when we were newlyweds. It has been a staple ever since. This recipe is quick, cheap, easy, and only uses one pan to make it.

When I hear the word Jambalaya, I think of something spicy and foreign. Now, this is NOT a true Jambalaya, but I would call it the poor man’s recipe because I think it’s one of those recipes that was born out of necessity in a family with 8 children. My Father in Law’s. His mom made this all the time.

Easy One Pan Jambalaya. Not too spicy, and uses ingredients you always have on hand! You can make this recipe in 30 minutes.

But, on nights when you forgot to make dinner until 5:30 (which is just about every night for me) then this recipe is one that you can pull out and throw together quickly.

Easy One Pan Jambalaya. Not to spicy and a perfect meal you can throw together at the last minute.

    As someone who despises doing the dishes, this recipe is right up my alley! Love that I'll only make one pan dirty.

    I'd remove the bell peppers because I can't eat them, but I would add my son's favorite veggie mix and we all would be happy with it!
