| Cajuns pretty much drink the same types of beverage that most other cultures do. We do like cold beer with our boiled crawfish and crabs, bar-b-ques and boudoin. We do serve Muscadine wine; a unique wine that is a little different.
We love homemade McCormick Root Beer Extract, made without the soda and sweetened with real sugar. We serve it really cold with Sunday dinner roast.
Fresh lemonade is really a treat. Ice tea is a favorite as with other cultures. And sometimes, we just cook our food in what we drink!

| This dish is an easy one dish meal and also makes a great presentation if you want to impress your mother-in-law or someone special with your cooking skills!

| VERY EASY TO MAKE!! Throw ingredients in an Hitachi (Cajun name for rice/stream cooker regardless of the manufacturer) rice cooker. As one visitor writes - "off the charts!". |

| While this Cajun lady was living in Corpus Christi, Texas I was challenged to cook up a mexican dish with crawfish for a pot luck dinner. This is it;everyone thought it was a winner.
Editor's note - Shrimp could be used instead of crawfish. |
| This simple dish was once the everyday "supper" for Cajuns. Served with milk, figs or cane syrup and even (one of my favorites)chopped pork cracklings. It was satisfying and filling. My favorite was eating it with coffee added to my milk (yes coffee milk) and lots of sugar! Repriser cela est bon! |
| Note that this recipe is prepared to feed the masses at large family reunions, vendors street fairs, school events, food festivals and politcal gatherings. Kaplan, LA in the year 2005 celebrated its first Cajun Food Festival. All types of fun Cajun foods are served. Make plans to attend in April/May 2006. Dance to many of the great local Cajun Bands including Wayne Toups.
Rice production in Louisiana were greatly affected with the intrusion of salt water from the storm surge during Hurricane Rita. |
| This chicken stew once cooked taste so much like chicken fricasse. So easy, so tasty, so much like fricasse! |
| After I moved to Kansas City, Missouri, I ran across a problem: I wanted to make traditional Cajun food, but did not have all of the ingredients I needed available to me. This recipe is representative of the Cajun lifestyle, using what we have around us, and making something great out of it. I chose to use Yellowfin Tuna due to its availability here in Kansas City and for the health benefits associated with tuna. |
| Rich tomato sauce base that may be used for spaghetti meatballs, chicken or seafood and sauce piquant. It also does make a wonderful sauce for lasagna. Very easy and delicious. Beth says, it truly is a great, rich tasting sauce on it's own... Not yet rated |

| Two ingredients that compliment each other extremely well are shrimp and eggplant. This recipe will prove it. It is easy and les goûts très bon (the taste is very good). |
