I made this recipe for my collegues at work, and they loved it! I substituted andouille sausage to give it a more "cajun" feel. It was great!

Easy and fast. I made it once with okra and once without. Second time, I used jasmine rice. Very good either way.

I have made this twice, and the family loves it. We don't use turkey sausage in our home so I used Value Village sweet italian, sliced 1/2 inch thick. Second time I used some leftover Smoked Ham with the shrimp, and added a teaspone of cajin seasnoning, with french bread this is a first class quick meal. thanks

The time for cooking a rou isn't long enough the rou is supposed to be darker. It tasted more like a soup than a Gumbo

I made this for a scary movie night with my friends and they all loved it. I made it again for my faimily and my husband kept going back for seconds. I've never had gumbo before but I really like this.
