Enjoy the flavor and soul of New Orleans with Family Size Jambalaya Rice Mix, made with long grain rice and real vegetables and spices. Just add 1 1/2 lbs smoked sausage, cooked chicken, ham, or shrimp for a one-pot, 30-minute meal the whole family will love. Creole jambalaya was born in New Orleans in the 18th century when Spanish settlers tried to recreate their beloved paella using Louisiana ingredients. Today it's a local staple found at music festivals and Mardi Gras parties as well as quiet weeknight meals. And there's a reason why Zatarain's Jambalaya Rice Mix is found in New Orleans pantries: it delivers classic jambalaya flavor and is easy to prepare - simply simmer Rice Mix and water with meat of your choice for a jazzed up dinner.
