This vegan jambalaya recipe is comfort food Cajun style! Loaded with rice, veggies, and plant-based sausage, this is a hearty meal that’s flavourful and satisfying.
Jambalaya is a classic Creole and Cajun dish that originates from Louisiana, and like most Cajun food, it’s known for its big, bold flavours. Traditionally, jambalaya is a one-pot dish consisting of rice, a variety of meats such as sausage, chicken, and seafood, and a blend of vegetables and spices, along with the “Cajun trinity” of onions, bell peppers, and celery.
Why You’ll Love This Vegan Jambalaya Recipe
A complete dinner in one pot. This vegan jambalaya is a perfect one-pot meal with vegan sausage, rice, and veggies all together in a single dish.
Big flavours. If you love dishes like Jamaican jerk tofu, you will appreciate this vegan jambalaya recipe. It’s not just spicy—there are layers and layers of flavour here!
Fantastic for meal prep. This is one of those recipes that tastes even better after a day or two in the fridge as the flavours meld even more. I love making a big pot on Sunday to have for lunch during the work week.
