Today’s Menu: Leftover Shrimp and Smoked Turkey Sausage Gumbo
For Breakfast I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 80 degrees, cloudy with passing rain showers out there today. We had a good shower of rain overnight but we need more rain. The grass and trees are brown from lack of rain. After my Tea I went and filled the car up with gas. About Noon I headed out to Ross, Ohio with my friend Linda. We go out there every so often to the 2 outdoor Produce Markets. They have the best Sweet Corn in Ohio grown in Ross. I picked up 3 lbs. of Half Runner Green Beans, a few Tomatoes, 6 Ears of Sweet Corn, and 10 big and beautiful South Carolina Peaches. I love those Peaches! Back home for Dinner tonight I heated up the Leftover Shrimp and Smoked Turkey Sausage Gumbo.
Gumbo is always one of my favorite meals, Shrimp and Smoked Turkey Sausage Gumbo! Plus the leftovers are just as good if not better! To make it I used a box of Zatarain’s Gumbo Pasta Dinner Mix for the Gumbo base, 1 1/2 Butterball Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausages (sliced into bite size slices), a bag of Meijer Brand Jumbo Shrimp and Frank’s Red Hot Sauce. I precooked the Sausage and Shrimp, according to the package instructions, before adding it to the Gumbo.
The Zatarain’s Gumbo Pasta Dinner Mix uses Pasta instead of Rice. It’s very easy to prepare, takes about 25-30 minutes. To start; I just boil the stock that’s in the packet, add the sliced Turkey Sausage to the stock along with a few shakes of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce and continued to cook for 10-15 minutes. Then I added the Shrimp and simmered for another 2-3 minutes. And the Gumbo is ready to serve and It turns out fantastic! Nice flavor, incredible tasting stock, meaty Shrimp and Sausage, and plenty of Pasta, makes one easily prepared hearty and delicious dish. Plus enough leftovers for a couple of lunches too, I took a small bowl over to my neighbor also. Then for Dessert a Jello Sugar Free Dark Cherry Jello.
