Cajun & Creole Recipes

Being married to a man from Louisiana, I quickly had to learn to cook like a Cajun. You will find Chicken and Sausage Gumbo, Red Beans and Rice, Crawfish and Tasso, Creole Seafood Gumbo, Crawfish Monica, and Collard Greens.

Our Cajun and Creole food always has some heat and always packs a ton of flavor. Homemade Raising Cane’s Sauce, Buttermilk Fried Chicken Tenders, and Fried Catfish are some of our favorites!
