Made this for dinner and the family loved it. It was very easy to make and full of flavor.

YUM! Didn't have andouille so I pre-cooked some sweet italian sausages and used them along with some cheddar/turkey sausages I had in the freezer. Went heavy on the Creole and the hot pepper sauce and it was awesome! I added another splash of beef broth before the last 15 min. of covered cooking time. The rice cooked perfectly without being mushy or crisp.

We loved the flavors of this jambalaya, but for some reason the rice wouldn't cook. I'm pretty sure the rice must have been old. Definatley making it again! It was so easy!

I'll be honest, when I first mixed up the soup, broth, and tomato sauce this didn't look appetizing and as I put it in the oven I questioned whether this was going to be any good. It's delicious! My family loved it and I thought the leftovers were even better (except for the shrimp of course).
