Old Bay Seasonings and Jambalaya!

First of all, thank you very much to Old Bay for contacting me and sending me such a wonderful gift bag. I was overwhelmed! There is a great tote bag which I will use both for shopping and for the beach. A HUGE box of Old Bay seasoning, a beach towel, recipes,a temporary tattoo, a key chain and a seasoning and shrimp steamer bag. Wow!




I have a few plans for the recipes but first off I used the Old Bay to make Jambalaya.

While the water was simmering for the rice and seasonings, I chopped some sausage and had shrimp ready for peeling.



I used medium sized pink gulf shrimp. They are sweeter in taste.




When the rice is ready for the pot, stir it in with 2 teaspoons of Old Bay (or to your taste) then add the sausage and shrimp.


It's simmering away..........



We served it with Barefoot Wine, tried a Pinot Grigio, and it was a very good combo. Refreshing to sip after shaking too much hot sauce over the jambalaya!



A side of Sister Shubert rolls...my son's favorite are the ones with sausages inside. They are tiny cocktail type sausages. Funny story about the first time we ever had these. Now isn't the time for it.......







Next week, after Kahlua week, I plan to try some Old Bay recipes for dip, a grilled tuna dish and use that steamer bag. Stay tuned!
