This Cajun Jambalaya Stuffed Roasted Turkey is not your average turkey. This Cajun Turkey is loaded with flavor between the butter injections straight into the meat, a delicious Cajun compound butter that gets rubbed all over the turkey, and a delicious jambalaya stuffing that goes into the cavity of the turkey. It’s a triple flavor bomb that I created in partnership with my good friends at Tony Chachere’s and this is one recipe you don’t want to skip this holiday season.

The holiday season is upon us and that means planning holiday menus has begun. I love mixing in traditional Louisiana dishes into my menus during the holidays since my husband is from the state. Louisiana meat pies are a traditional dish that frequently show up to holiday tables and for good reason. I partnered with my friends at Tony Chachere’s to create these Louisiana meat pies with sage gravy so that you can bring the taste of Louisiana to your table this holiday season.

One of my favorite gift ideas to give during the holiday season is homemade goodies. There are so many options of sweet treats to make, but buckeyes are a classic homemade sweet treat that my mom has made during the holidays for as long as I can remember. I added my own twist on this recipe by adding a little flaky salt on top to balance out the richness of the buckeyes to make them even more irresistible. This recipe for salted buckeyes is one that you are going to want to make every single year.

Cornish hens or “game hens” are a small poultry bird that are great for entertaining and can be cooked up easily while looking a bit fancy at the same time. I partnered with my friends at Tony Chachere’s to create a delicious holiday meal that will impress your guests with no stress in the kitchen on you part. I like to serve them up on a festive rice stuffing that is full of flavor and the perfect pairing with the cornish hens. This recipe for roasted Cornish Hens with Festive Rice Stuffing is sure to become a new holiday favorite.
