Good heavens,  I am in my senior years and then some, and just realized I've never even tasted gumbo, simple or otherwise!!!!

 

I just checked on shipping frozen gumbo to Canada, but it appears that mixed ingredient foods are not allowed. 🤨

 

Gumbo is to Cajuns what pho is to the Vietnamese, or chicken soup is to the Jewish community. Soul soothing and comforting.

 

With rice is best, of course:

But sans rice, and with deviled eggs subbing for potato salad… also delicious.

Seafood gumbo is pricey these days, but it is truly my favorite. I would LOVE to make it for Christmas Eve, but son and DIL wouldn’t eat any, and my husband would be good for one bowl and then done. Sigh.

Not sure why I keep so many pics of gumbo on my computer, haha! 

 

Shrimp and okra gumbo.
