  • Bisquick Cornbread Recipe. This southern staple is welcome on my table at any meal. Sometimes sweet, sometimes spicy, I can’t get enough of the stuff!
  • Cajun Corn Maque Choux. I love corn so much, I will add some to everything I can – even cake! Even though I like it alone with nothing but some salt and butter, I do love finding new ways of serving this crisp and sweet veggie.
  • Cajun Baked Sweet Potato Fries. Can we all agree that fries are the best food out there? Want to save this recipe? Enter your email below and we'll send the recipe straight to your inbox!
  • Louisiana Dirty Rice. There’s an old tradition down in Louisiana. Monday is for laundry and red beans and rice. My very first time in New Orleans – more than 15 years ago – I arrived at my hostel and was handed a big plate of red beans with dirty rice and a beer on the side.
  • Cajun Summer Vegetables. If you’re anything like me, you love the idea of roasted veggies but are often disappointed by a bland dish. The good news is, Cajun spice can make even the most boring dish exciting!
  • Red Beans and Rice. This is more of a main dish, but I just had to include it. The simplicity of red beans, cooked in the holy Cajun trinity of celery, onion, and peppers is to die for – not to mention the smoky andouille sausage!
  • Cajun Chicken Wings. I’m a massive fan of spicy foods but often find hot sauce to be overly acidic. That’s probably why I like Cajun spice so much. You get a pleasant warmth without the tang.
  • Cajun Crab Dip. This creamy dip is loaded with horseradish, cream cheese, sour cream, and crab meat. There’s some added heat from Cajun spice and hot sauce, and the whole thing gets served hot.
  • Cajun Coleslaw. As much as I love the fresh vegetable medley used here, feel free to use a store-bought mix to save on time. The list of ingredients for the dressing might seem long, but you likely already have ketchup, lemon juice, mustard, and even Worcestershire sauce somewhere in the fridge.
  • Slow Cooker Cajun Ham & Beans. I don’t know why we don’t have beans more as a side dish. They’re filling, cheap, and can be super flavorful when you cook them right.

  • Fried Shrimp-and-Okra Po'Boys. Smashes and flattening the okra, instead of chopping it up and then frying it, makes them easier to fit onto the sandwich.
  • Instant Pot Red Beans and Rice. Since the Instant Pot rose to insane popularity, our Test Kitchen has been hard at work recreating Southern classics that can be made using it.
  • Our Best Jambalaya. This classic one-pot dish is loaded with Creole spices and comes together in three easy steps.
  • Grilled Creole Chicken & Okra. Ingredients like Andouille sausage and fresh okra only taste more delicious after a little time on the grill.
  • Cajun Shrimp Foil Packets with Red Potatoes and Zucchini. The best part about foil packet dinners? No cleanup!
  • Instant Pot Jambalaya. This recipe combines one of our favorite old-school dishes with our favorite new-school kitchen tool.
  • Collard Green Creole Dirty Rice. Two Southern favorites that are often served separately meet in this dish that's incredibly flavorful and hearty enough to be a main dish.
  • Crawfish Étouffée. Enriched with crawfish fat, the recipe closely resembles the original 20s dish created by Mrs. Charles Hebert at the eponymous Breaux Bridge Hebert Hotel.
  • Smoked Turkey-and-Andouille Gumbo. Beau Beaullieu and Andy Soileau's New Iberia Kiwanis Club team has taken first place 11 times at the World Championship Gumbo Cookoff.
  • Emily's Red Beans and Rice. Rich, tender beans cooked with a smoked ham hock are beautiful with buttery, fluffy rice.
