Easy Jambalaya
I was wondering if you could add an easy Jambalaya recipe? I always make Jambalaya from a Zatarain's mix, but I would like to learn to make it from scratch. All the recipes I've found seem very complicated and time-consuming though.

Hi Katie,
I don’t happen to have a jambalaya recipe on the site, but our sister site, GreatMealsinUnder30.com, has a super-fast recipe you might want to try: Chicken Jambalaya.
You might also want to check out some of the recipes at the Zatarain's website: zatarains.com/Recipes/Jambalaya.aspx. They all use their mixes, but the recipes also include a lot more additional ingredients than just chicken or seafood. It might be a good place to start if you want to expand your jambalaya repertoire.

QuestionHi Gramma Betty - My ginger cookies tend to get harder overnight, and I'm still experimenting to try to get a softer cookie. What do you think I could do to give more softness? But what I was originally going to ask was if you had a good recipe for either ginger cookies, or gingersnap cookies? Thanks for your help! I love your recipes! --Your Adopted Granddaughter JoAnn :)March 2012
