I hate spicy foods. And when I say spicy, I mean hot spicy. Now, I know it’s good for burning fat so will have some pepper such as cayenne every once in a while. But normally spicy foods really hide the flavor of the foods they are in. My mother and father agreed with me. So when we moved to Louisiana back when I was 13, we tried some Jambalaya. The food itself was good, but too spicy. So my mother came up with a recipe that didn’t have the pepper in it. That recipe was then passed to my wife. Anyone who has tasted it has loved it. Last night, that is what I ate. So here is the recipe as told to me by my wife:

Ingredients
One package chicken breast
1 package smoked sausage
2 cans French onion soup
2 cans beef consume
2 1/2 cups uncooked rice
1 stick butter

Directions

1. Boil chicken (salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, poultry seasoning, chicken boulion cube)
2. When fully cooked shred chicken making sure to remove all fat.
3. Cut smoked sausage into rounds.
4. Add all ingredients into a baking pan
5. Bake at 450 until rice is fully cooked about 1 1/2 hours

Make sure to read the carbs on the rice you use. That determines the carbs of the dish. Take more sausage and chicken if possible and keep the carbs below 60. (So basically about 1 1/2 cups of jambalaya per 1 cup of rice you’re allowed.)

Enjoy! This is good stuff. And it’s easy to make. And the amount it makes can be used over and over again depending on the size of your household. We eat off of it twice and send the rest to a few friends who can’t get enough.
