Shrimp and Andouille Sausage Jambalaya (Leftovers)

Dinner Tonight: Leftovers -Shrimp and Andouille Sausage Jambalaya





It's a beautiful Fall day out, sunny and a high in the 60's. I got early this morning and went outside to see the Full Lunar Eclipse. It was perfect morning to see it, clear skies above. Many years ago, when I was working second shift, I was coming home in the wee hours and caught an Eclipse back then, so this morning was my second chance to see one. For dinner tonight it's Leftovers, Shrimp and Andouille Sausage Jambalaya.







Last night's meal was just so delicious I wasn't going to let the leftovers go to waste! So tonight I heated up last night's meal of Shrimp and Andouille Sausage Jambalaya. So here is the Recipe and Directions for Shrimp and Andouille Sausage Jambalaya.


I used Zatarain’s New Orleans Style Jambalaya Mix (Reduced Sodium) for my base for the Jambalaya. I use Zatarain’s Products whenever I can, love the flavor and seasoning of all their products. To prepare it I just followed the easy instructions on the box. Mixed 2 1/2 cups of Water and 2 tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and brought it to a boil. Added the Zatarain’s Jambalaya Mix and my Johnsonville Andouille Smoked Sausage, I had sliced the Sausage into smaller pieces before adding. Returned it to a boil, and then reduced the heat to low. Covered and simmered for about 25 minutes till most of the moisture had been absorbed. With 10 minutes left I added my (Kroger Brand) Jumbo Shrimp, till fully cooked and turned pink. Removed it from the heat and let it rest for about 5 minutes before I served it. The Andouille Sausage and Jumbo Shrimp make a fantastic pairing with the Jambalaya Mix! I added a couple of shakes of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce to the mix also, nothing like a little heat to kick things up!  This makes one delicious Jambalaya Dish, even as a leftovermeal!. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Chocolate Swirl Frozen Greek Yogurt.
