Sam O's Jambalaya (or rather: YUM-balaya!! ...heehee...snort...groan...)



OK...so it's *really* Emeril's jambalaya...but Chef Sam O made it his own. He used a TON of veggies (instead of the few that Emeril suggests) and also added okra (because he wanted to experience okra!). He chose to not use shrimp and instead of andouille sausage, he chose chorizo.

Also, we used vegetarian non-chicken chicken broth, and didn't add the meat until we had taken some of the cooked rice mixture out for Jake's vegetarian version, to which we added cannellini beans (photo below).

Here is a picture of the mixture before it was cooked (I know...it just looks like some swimming okra...)...




Jake's veggie version...



And Sam's deliciousness:





EnJOY.
