Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea for Breakfast, not much of an appetite this morning. We just got the snow off the driveway and roads and it snowed again! This area is just used to this Winter weather for as long as its been now. We got about 2 inches I guess overnight and into the morning. So I cleared what I could from the driveway and then my neighbor came over and cleared the rest for me. It wouldn't be so if I driveway wasn't a hill! And then having to deal with it in a wheelchair makes it even harder. But you just to do what you can. I finally was able to get out and go check out the new Kroger they opened yesterday. It's double the size of the old Kroger, which they really needed the space. The store is huge! They really did a great job with it. Many more selections and new items. For Dinner tonight I prepared a personnel favorite, Shrimp and Smoked Turkey Sausage Gumbo.
One of my favorite meals tonight, Shrimp and Smoked Turkey Sausage Gumbo! To make it I used a box of Zatarain’s Gumbo Pasta Dinner Mix for the Gumbo base, 1 1/2 Butterball Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausages (sliced into bite size slices), a bag of Meijer Brand Jumbo Shrimp and Frank’s Red Hot Sauce. I precooked the Sausage and Shrimp, according to the package instructions, before adding it to the Gumbo.
The Zatarain’s Gumbo Pasta Dinner Mix uses Pasta instead of Rice. It’s very easy to prepare, takes about 25-30 minutes. To start; I just boil the stock that’s in the packet, add the sliced the Turkey Sausage to the stock along with a few shakes of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce and continued to cook for 10-15 minutes. Then I added the Shrimp and simmered another 2-3 minutes. And the Gumbo is ready to serve and It turns out fantastic! Nice flavor, incredible tasting stock, meaty Shrimp and Sausage, and plenty of Pasta, makes one easily prepared hearty and delicious dish. Plus enough leftovers for a couple of lunches too! Then for Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Mango Snapple to drink.Zatarain’s New Orleans Style Gumbo Pasta Dinner Mix
