Crockpot Shrimp Creole
Crockpot Shrimp Creole
* 1 1/2 c. diced celery
* 1 1/4 c. chopped onion
* 3/4 c. chopped bell pepper
* 1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
* 1 (28 oz.) can whole tomatoes
* 1 clove garlic
* 1 tsp. salt
* 1/4 tsp. pepper
* 6 drops Tabasco (opt.)
* 1 lb. shrimp, deveined & shelled
* 1 teaspoon garlic salt
Combine all ingredients except shrimp. Cook 3 to 4 hours on high or 6 to 8 hours on low. Add shrimp last hour of cooking. Serve over hot rice. Chicken, rabbit or crawfish may be substituted for shrimp. Stove top version, if you don’t have a Crock Pot. Saute celery, onion and bell peppers in oil or butter until tender. (Better if left a bit crunchy.) Add remaining ingredients except meat being used. Simmer at least 30 minutes to an hour. Add shrimp or whatever meat you wish and simmer 30 minutes more.
