We were excited to get this recipe. How nice to put the gumbo to cook in a crockpot before leaving for work or shopping and come home from work and have gumbo ready to eat. Great for Working America - Working Cajuns! This gumbo can be served as a side to a main dish or can be the main dish!

*This recipe was originally created for someone who was allergic to shrimp but not other seafood. Therefore, you can substitute shrimp for the crawfish or add 1 package of frozen shrimp to the recipe if desired. The shrimp will be added to the Crockpot at the same time as the crawfish.
** If desired 2 tablespoons of gumbo file may be added to the recipe with the other seasonings.
