Jambalaya is a Cajun-Creole dish that is packed with rich, deep flavors, and stars smoky andouille sausage, juicy chicken thighs and any other meat we can get our paws on. This comfort food is eaten at nearly every big event, from family gatherings to game days. This big-batch, make-ahead dish lets you make a delicious meal for your guests without being tied to the stove and missing out on the party, which is why it’s nearly everyone’s go-to meal whenever they’ve got to entertain a group of friends.
Jambalaya means “all mixed up” or “jumbled,” and it is exactly that — a combination of West African, French, and Spanish influences that all came together in New Orleans. The base of the dish is tomato and rice, with the Cajun Holy Trinity (celery, bell pepper, and onion) being essential. The proteins can vary depending on the season, from andouille to crawfish and shrimp to duck and other game meat.

JARS & SIZING:
For over five years, Novel Nola has been dedicated to recycling every piece of glass we can get our hands on. Our glass storage facility has become overgrown as we’ve welcomed countless locals to drop off their glass, reusable packaging, and materials, fostering a community committed to sustainability.
For this reason, we have decided to update our inventory to exclusively use upcycled vessels for our candles. These jars are donated to us by our local community and hand-cleaned by us!
Please note: Listing photos are just an example of products and sizes. Jar shapes, sizes, colors, etc. will vary. Not all jars may have lids. Every jar will be selected at random in the size range you choose. If you have a certain color in mind or would like a lid, please let us know in the notes at checkout, and we will do our best to accommodate. Every candle is unique and handmade with love.
With each order you place with Novel, you are helping us give back to our beloved community.
