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.
