jambalaya {recipe}

Mrs. wanna-be chef is back. I made jambalaya this weekend. Costco does not carry andouille sausage. bummer. so this is shrimp (only) jambalaya.





Do not be scared of the list of spices. You probably have all in your pantry already. I doubled the recipe because we love left overs. For this recipe, I used both canned diced tomatoes and fresh roma tomatoes.

Let me know what you think once you've made it.

3/4 cup water
1 tbsp tomato paste
1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce (I used tabasco)
1 {14.5 oz} can no salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained (or use fresh!)
1/2 lb peeled and deveined shrimp
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
