This Cajun jambalaya recipe is made in the traditional way but with a little less heat. I have always loved Cajun food but my wife doesn't like spicy food. Everyone loved this recipe and I hope you will too.

Autumn Stuffed Acorn Squash
I only make this recipe in autumn since the flavors are so fall-like. The hint of maple syrup and warm cranberries really sets it off. This is nice enough for company and pairs wonderfully with crusty bread and a full bodied white wine. My hubby starts asking for it as early as late August!
Pineapple Grilled Pork Chops
These are a delightful and quick meal for the grill. I usually serve with a baked potato, but my daughter loves them with wild rice.
