Keto Crockpot Jambalaya Creole

Keto Crockpot Jambalaya Creole. Super SIMPLE to make. Flavorful and full of your favorite Creole flavors – Creole seasoning blend, sausage, shrimp, and tomatoes. A low carb, keto, and gluten-free dish. Enjoy!

From the crockpot, I love quick and simple dinners. After an exhausting day, there is nothing worse than having to face making dinner – especially when you’re trying to follow a diet.

Easy To Make

It is super easy. You simply chop up your vegetables, add to the crockpot, the rest of the ingredients, heat for THREE to FOUR hours then add shrimp the last THIRTY minutes. Voila! An easy and VERY tasty Jambalaya recipe!

Delicious

As it is so full of flavor so I think you’ll love this recipe! This recipe is not too mild and not too spicy. About the combination of tomatoes, Creole seasoning, smoked sausage, and shrimp, there is just something. It is SO DANG GOOD.

By all means dress it up with more Creole seasoning or hot sauce if you’re into spicy. As it’s easier to add spice than to take it away so I start on the mild side for my family. In my house, I have a mix of mild and spicy eaters.

Gluten-Free, Low Carb, and Keto

If you are following a low carb or keto diet, this is a very satisfying dish. Not only it has so much delicious flavor, but it is filling.
