  • Firecracker Shrimp Jambalaya

    We returned to our old friend Great Bowls of Fire for this spicy shrimp and rice dish. This is another one of the “huge portion” recipes that we love.

Great Bowls of Fire contains one more posole recipe that we haven’t tried yet, but I’m sure we’ll get to it […]
