  • Authentic New Orleans Gumbo. I’m pretty sure we stepped off the plane and made a beeline for the nearest restaurant on our first trip to New Orleans.
  • Cajun Chicken Pasta. We’ve all seen Cajun seasoning before, and maybe you’re wondering what that actually means. Cajun seasoning is a blend of paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, some herbs, salt, and pepper.
  • Red Beans and Rice. Red beans and rice is known in New Orleans as Monday night dinner. That’s the night they eat this dish and do laundry. But don’t worry, you can eat it whenever you like!
  • Cajun Shrimp and Grits. If you’ve ever had grits and decided you hate them, you must not have had the right kind. I promise; follow this recipe, and you’ll be wondering how you went so long without them.
  • Jambalaya. Jambalaya is a beautiful rice dish based on Spanish, French, and certain African cuisines. In fact, they’re so close; I once started to make paella and ended up with jambalaya.
  • Smothered Chicken. This recipe gets its name from the fact that the chicken is absolutely smothered in creamy gravy. Every bite is better than the last, and this one-pot meal is worth every calorie.
  • Louisiana Deviled Crab Cakes. One bite of these, and you’ll throw out your old recipe. Crabmeat has terrific texture and not a lot of flavor, but in this recipe, it gets elevated by some fantastic additions.
  • Smothered Cabbage and Potatoes. If you’re on the lookout for a cheap, filling, delicious side dish, this one’s for you! Cabbage and potatoes are about as economical as they come, and better yet, they’re hearty, warm, and super easy to season.
  • Cajun-Style Fried Deviled Eggs. You’ve had good deviled eggs, and you’ve had bland deviled eggs, but I bet you’ve never had crunchy, fried deviled eggs.
  • Spicy Cajun Dipping Sauce. If you’re anything like me, you have a fridge door full of condiments. I just love having a variety of sauces on hand to make a fast dinner even better.
