A great recipe originally, I tweaked it because I don’t eat sausage. Instead of Aduille Sausage or Chorizo I used Soyrizo (it’s soy with chorizo seasonings I find it at Randall’s/Safeway with the soy cheese & tofu stuff), even my meat loving husband says it’s a good substitute! With rice it makes 4 good sized portions. Warning: This is spicy!

You can easily make this vegetarian by removing the shrimp or substituting it with Tofu. I’d love to hear how it turns out!
