HEALTHIER SLOW COOKER GUMBO

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add flour; cook, stirring constantly, until flour is deep golden and smells toasty, 7 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat if browning too quickly. Transfer to a 6-quart slow cooker.
• Add oil, bell peppers, onion, and garlic to the skillet; cook and stir until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir into slow cooker until coated. Stir in sausage, tomatoes, broth, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
• Cook on Low for 6 to 7 hours or on High for 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Stir in shrimp; cook until opaque, about 30 minutes on Low or 15 minutes on High.
• Meanwhile, place riced cauliflower in a heatproof dish, cover, and microwave until heated through, about 4 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• Serve gumbo over cauliflower. Sprinkle with parsley and additional black pepper.

CHICKEN GUMBO POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Heat the oil in an ovenproof 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add the spice mix and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the stewed tomatoes and bring to a boil. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the juices release and evaporate, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken and cook until the meat just loses its pink color, about 3 minutes.
• Unroll the crust and center over the chicken-vegetable filling in the skillet; poke 3 slits in the dough. Transfer to the oven and bake until the crust is golden brown, about 30 minutes.
