Good eating! Make you some good ole fashion biscuits to go with it and you got yourself a meal.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

C'est si bon!! (That's Cajun French saying for "It's so good!") This is bursting with Cajun flavor. Super easy, this is great for breakfast or a hearty brunch. It would be fun to serve this on Fat Tuesday before all the festivities begin.
