you could make a vegetarian jambalaya. saute onion and garlic, then add vegetable broth, a can each of black beans (drained) corn (drained) and diced tomatoes (undrained) and your spices ( i always use thyme, pepper flakes, cumin, salt and pepper..sometimes paprika...i don't know what is in cajun seasoning, but i'm sure you could look the two up on a recipe website, like allrecipes.com). and to all of that you add a cup or two of rice, depending on how much broth you've used. i use a mixture of quinoa and brown rice if i have it on hand and that is really really good!


let it boil, turn it to low, cover and let it cook until the liquid is almost gone, uncover and cook about 5-10 mins more, stirring it just a couple of times. and there you have it. Recipe with Cajun seasoning needed?
I hope this helps.





Cajun cuisine is sometimes confused with Creole cuisine, and many outside of Louisiana don't make the distinction. Creole is more city 鈥?urban, cosmopolitan, and inspired by the French, Spanish, African, and Italian influences of New Orleans 鈥?while Cajun dishes have more of a French influence, filtered through common (to Louisiana) ingredients and techniques. This matter is complicated by the sharing of several dishes between the cuisines, including gumbo, gumbo z'herbes (a vegetarian gumbo), seafood 脿 l'茅touff茅e, and jambalaya, although New Orleans jambalaya and gumbo are prepared differently from their Cajun counterparts.








As for a good home cooking meal do some vegetarian gumbo.
