Zatarain’s Gumbo Mix

When we visited Southeastern Oklahoma (aka Choctaw Country) in 2019, we stayed in a fantastic Airbnb with an amazing view. Each night I cooked at “home” and one evening I made a Shrimp Gumbo. It was easy…I used Zatarain’s Gumbo Mix. If you haven’t tried this and you like gumbo please give it a try!

Think of this Gumbo Mix as a base or foundation. Follow my recipe below, or use your creativity to come up with your own delicious gumbo!

All you need for the gumbo that I made is:

Box of Zatarain’s Gumbo Mix (you should be able to find this at your local grocery store; I have also linked here to Amazon)
14.5 oz can of Stewed Tomatoes
1 lb shrimp
Water
Hot Pickled Okra – Optional (but oh so good!)
Green Onions – Optional for garnish

The Zatarain’s Gumbo Mix already includes rice, so you won’t need to make additional rice to accompany this dish. They make it so easy!

Lamb Fries Brought Us To Roseanna’s

It was the Lamb Fries which brought us to Roseanna’s Italian Food Restaurant in Krebs, Oklahoma. Do you know what Lamb Fries are? We thought we knew what they were. My husband loves lamb, and he loves fries, so undoubtedly he would love Lamb fries!

Well, turns out they were good, but they weren’t what we thought. Lamb fries are lamb testicles. They are often served breaded and fried, which is how we enjoyed them at Roseanna’s. 🙂

Frozen tater tots are good, but homemade tater tots are better!

My husband Steve turned me on to these. For instance I was a skeptic. I had thought that homemade tater tots wouldn’t be worth the trouble to make, but boy was I wrong!

The first time Steve made tots, he and Toby ate most of them and only left a few for me.
