Sausage Jambalaya

This jambalaya is Jammin!


easy sausage jambalaya

Inspired by the movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" (2008)

“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” is truly an original film. It tells the story of Benjamin Buttons’ (Brad Pitt) most usual life from birth in New Orleans. I don’t what to spoil the film for those who haven’t seen it. You will be surprised, but in a very good way. Brad Pitt shows he is much more than a pretty face. This film earned several awards, including 3 Oscars and was one of the best films of 2008!


We have another winning recipe with the New Orleans spice and flair! It’s super easy to make and packs a mighty favor blast in every single bite. Make enough for leftovers because you will want more the next day. Another inspiration from the Bayou, where the great dishes keep coming!

3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
