Sheet Pan Jambalaya

(6)

A Note from Feedfeed

This dish is a spin on traditional jambalaya- big, bold flavor packed into a one sheet-pan dinner! Bell peppers and onions caramelize in the oven with smoky sausage and juicy shrimp all tied together with a punch of Cajun seasoning. Cauliflower rice rounds out this dish for a lighter take on the classic (we promise you won't miss the rice!) Clean, wholesome recipes are @cleanfoodiecraving's Charlotte's thing, and this recipe is no exception!
