Here's the basics of what you'll need.
Sauté all vegetables in a bit of olive oil until translucent. About 5 minutes. Add your garlic in for 1 minute. Be careful not to burn garlic. Also, add 1 tbsp Louisiana Hot Sauce to your vegetables.
Add all broth and water to vegetables and bring to a heavy simmer.
Add your 10 oz packet of Bear Creek Gumbo Soup Mix. Simmer covered for 15 minutes. Stir regularly.
A fantastic OTC choice!
Also, add your precooked rice to thicken your Gumbo.
At 15 minutes - add your precooked sausage and shrimp. Simmer for 5 minutes covered until fully heated. Stir regularly.
Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro. Serve piping hot with Louisiana Hot Sauce and garlic bread to the side as well. Enjoy!
