No Time 2 Cook Recipe of the Week: South Louisiana Gumbo
The quickest, easiest and most delicious gumbo!
All the work is in our Cajun Gumbo Base. It’s a frozen concentrate of dark roux, okra, Louisiana trinity (onions, celery and bell pepper), a premium all-natural chicken base, and our secret No Time 2 Cook spice. With deep family roots in South Louisiana from Baton Rouge to Houma, my gumbo base was inspired and developed from the way my family cooked gumbo.
All you need:
No Time 2 Cook Cajun Gumbo Base; water or broth; shrimp, crab and sausage; recipe below and about 30 minutes.

How easy is it really?
For our family gathering to watch Super Bowl 2018, I brought a thawed Gumbo Base. My cousin had the raw shrimp, crab claw meat and browned sausage ready to add. I showed up at 5 p.m., and our delicious meal was ready in time for kickoff. My cousin’s bowl looked so good, I wouldn’t let him take a bite until I snapped this shot (Photo shown above).

This is a delicious, yet easy to prepare gumbo recipe worth trying. Using fresh jumbo shrimp, I made it with a slight Chesapeake twist by adding a little Old Bay seasoning. Thanks for sharing.
