Crescent City Jambalaya

Exactly what does “JAMBALAYA” mean? Many theories surround its origins in the French Quarter of New Orleans, one suggesting that the French word ‘Jambon’, meaning ham, was mixed with the African word ‘Aya’ meaning rice. This Creole recipe brings together ham, smoked sausage, and the “Holy Trinity” of vegetables for a dish that is very filling yet surprisingly light!
