Harmony’s Sunday Jambalaya is so hot it’s on Fiya!

Aah. Lazy Sundays. I’m letting myself relax today, play stupid video games, and write  on my blog. Ever  since my dad gave me a slow cooker (or Crock-Pot, i’m not exactly sure what the hell it is) as a gift, I have enjoyed a new level of culinary freedom! Harmony (my roommate and best friend) has amassed all kinds of slow cooker recipes and I wanted to share one of my absolute favorites! It’s a Jambalaya recipe that she has tweaked, and man is it good! We kind of don’t measure when we make slow cooker meals, and every time we make it it’s a bit different, so this is an estimation of what we’re doing today. It’s about the simplest recipe in the world, and it tastes great! I hope you enjoy!
