Jambalaya is a traditional Louisiana dish, coming from our Spanish and French culture. Rice is the main ingredient, with different meats or seafood mixed in. I particularly like this variation with shrimp and ham. &mdash;Ruby Williams, Bogalusa, Louisiana

Sounds fantastic but I’m wondering if I can use cauliflower rice instead of regular rice.  We prefer the lower carb lifestyle. Anyone tried it this way?

Excellent! I only made a couple of changes. I used hot Italian sausage instead of ham and added some red pepper flakes. My husband and his workers give it 5 stars!

This was a good recipe. I did change a few things. I added sausages instead of  using ham

This recipe was amazing. Really fast and easy to make. Only thing I would change is it needed a bit of salt, but then again I didn't use condensed broth (just regular) and put only one cup of ham, so that may be why. It served about 4 people in my household

This was excellent. It actually tasted better the second day. Very easy to make.

This is one of my staples, always turns out, I've substituted meats, sausage etc, over time depending on what I had on hand. You can spice it up or not, depending on your own tastes.

I've been making this recipe for years. We love it, I put andoulee sausage in it instead of ham I think it gives it quite a kick!

This took another full cup of water to get the rice to cook and still was too tomato-y for me.  Very sweet and not much else;  lacked flavor and needed lots more herbs or salt or something.  Probably won't try again.

My friends and family loved this dish.  I did add some hot smoked sausage with the shrimp.

Football season can be chilly in Montana, so i tripled this recipe and fed a huge group of people.  We are huge football fans, and now also, my friends are huge jambalaya fans too!

real good used sausage instead of ham.fantastic..

I made this in a slow cooker and it turned out yummy!  I used chicken broth instead of beef broth, and I used chicken and kielbassa for the meats.  I also added some creole seasoning. Don't put rice in slow cooker, just serve with rice on the side.

Great recipe and fast.  I added some smoked sausage to this for a little extra variety and cut back on the amount of ham.  Delicious

my dad loves this recipe and so does my son. Really a good one. Have tried many

We have fixed this many times. This is classic cajun dish that taste wonderful!!

Good rendition of a Louisiana classic.  I also used andouille sausage instead of the ham, which added plenty of salt to the dish as a whole.  I put in Cajun seasoning instead of the chili pepper for more authenticity.  The family liked it and would eat it again.  I think the amount of liquids provided the right amount for the rice--mine was not dry.

This was a simple, delisous meal, but it didn't have that wow factor.  I think 1/2 - 1 tsp. Old bay and hot sauce could set this jambalaya over the edge.

This was a really easy meal to fix.  All 3 children ate this dish.  You can substitute chicken or sausages quite easily for those with shellfish allergies.  Very easy on the calories as well.
