INSTRUCTIONS
A halmark of creole cooking, jambalaya is traditionally a combination
of rice plus any mixture of meat, poultry, shellfish and vegetables.
This slightly spicy family-style version combines cooked ham and
creamy butter beans with traditional creole seasonings. It's easy to
make and delicious to eat! In large skillet over medium-high heat,
cook and stir onions and green pepper in margarine until crisp-tender.
Stir in water, tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, thyme, cayenne and
pepper. Bring to a boil; add rice. Reduce heat to low; cover and
simmer 25 to 35 minutes or until rice is tender, stirring
occasionally. Stir in ham and butter beans. Cover; simmer an
additional 5 to 10 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring
occasionally. 6 (1-1/4 cup) servings. Posted to recipelu-digest by
