During chilly months, I fix this jambalaya at least once a month. It’s so easy…just chop the vegetables, dump everything in the slow cooker and forget it! Even my sons, who are picky about spicy things, like this dish.—Cindi Coss, Coppell, Texas

We didn't know we liked jambalaya 'til we tried this.

Solid thumbs up from the whole family. Decreased the hot sauce and cayenne to suit the kids' taste and just added hot sauce at the table. Also replace the green pepper with zucchini and okra, again, just personal preferences. Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe!

My family loves this. I can't use shell fish because of allergies, but I just add more sausage. We lived near Cajun country, and although this is not what they would call authentic, it sure is good. Be sure to use quality Andouille sausage. It makes a big difference. We all love hot spicy food, so after the first time, I added Tony Chachere's as well as all the spices indicated. This is on my rotation of regulars. Thanks Cindi.

Oh my God we loved this recipe. I omitted the hot sauce and used chili powder instead of cayenne and it was good. Used a whole pound of shrimp also. The aroma is phenomenal! Will make again.
