Is spring here? I’m not sure with all the snow we’ve had but I am taking full advantage of the sunshine and today was a perfect day for a run. I must say I have been a little lazy in the kitchen this week. I have been super busy working on a few new projects so I have been cooking the basics and eating simple other than a few dinners and lunches with the girls. Lets just say my VitaMix has saved my life. It has been a very productive week so I thought I would cap it off with a recipe I have wanted to try from my sister Shara. I’m glad I did.

For protein I used chicken, shrimp and spicy Spolumbos sausage. Shara’s recipe called for crab meat instead of chicken and I’m sure that would be great too. I did not have creole spice mix so I made my own; I used this recipe I found from Emeril Lagasse. If you like it spicy, and I do, be brave and add more. Spice it up I say. I served this gumbo with a cauliflower puree and it was great. I do sometimes miss creamy mashed potatoes and this puree satisfied my craving.

Enjoy your weekend. I am praying I don’t wake up to snow tomorrow.
