    Amazing recipe and the meal I get the most requests for. Every time I make it, I am reminded of when I lived in New Orleans. I always add more vegetables than the it calls for and I am used a can of diced tomatoes (drained in the winter when I can't find good ripe ones or to help cut down on all the chopping.
