Allen and I wanted to make Vigo Jambalaya Cajun Rice Mix for some time and finally tried it earlier this week. This rice mix is a quick alternative to making jambalaya from scratch without sacrificing flavor and great taste. I cooked sweet Italian sausage following package directions, let the sausage rest after cooking for 5 minutes and sliced it. When the rice was cooked, I added sausage and stirred together (see below). I topped off the rice with curled parsley from Allen's indoor urban garden.
If you have a large family just make 2 packages and add shrimp, pork and sausage. We served ours with a salad or serve with your favorite steamed veggies for a hearty meal.
Directions
Boil 2 1/2 cups Water.
Add 2 tablespoons of butter (optional).
Add contents of 1 package of Vigo Jambalaya Cajun Rice Mix stirring while boiling for 1 minute.
Cover.
Reduce to low, simmer and cook for 20-22 minutes.
Add cooked sliced sausage, pork, shrimp or all three. Combine.
Remove from heat.
Let stand uncovered for 5 minutes.
Fluff with a fork and serve!
Sprinkle with a fresh herb, we used curled parsley.
