We went road tripping this Summer to Texas to see my sister and drove through Cajun Country. The signs for Jambalaya and Crawfish were everywhere in Louisiana. I decided when we got home I was going to have to recreate those tongue tingling flavors into a delicious Crockpot Jambalaya.
The spice in this dish kicks it up a notch. Feel free to add more or less cayenne pepper to make this perfect for your family. A great tip is to add a dollop of sour cream to help cut the spice if you add a bit too much. You can never go wrong with sour cream.
Serve this delicious Crockpot Jambalaya over rice and with a piece of crusty bread or Homemade Biscuits for a delicious dinner any night of the week.
