Introduction

This Jambalaya is lower on fat and sodium than most others. Due to an oversight, I had not added the tomatoes to the recipe. This has been corrected. The tomatoes used are petite diced with no added salt. If you use other than this you will need to account for the extra sodium. This Jambalaya is lower on fat and sodium than most others.
