Jambalaya is a dish native to New Orleans, known for its bewitching Cajun and Creole cuisine. This dish almost always contains meat in some shape or form, and so we thought it only fair to create something that all could enjoy, and thus was born our Risoni Vegetarian Jambalaya. Instead of rice we use risoni, which is rice shaped pasta, not dissimilar to orzo. The final product is a filling, spicy and completely compelling dish that will have even the most resolute carnivores asking for seconds.
