jambalaya

it's been a while since i've posted anything on here... but we just made this jambalaya with dallin and it was really very good! i was really pleased with it. yum yum!

it's from allrecipes.com, and since it's a slow cooker recipe, it's SUPER easy. there's a little bit of prep, but other than that, it's quick.

we added maybe a teaspoon of salt and pepper to it as well, and were really pleased with it. you could probably do even a little bit less cayenne pepper, since it was a bit spicy, but i liked it.
