Ingredients
  

  • 1 small onion (chopped)
  • 1 medium green bell pepper (chopped)
  • 1 cup celery (chopped)
  • 1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 (12-ounce) package smoked sausage (Sliced about ¼; you can also substitute andouille sausage)
  • 1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon parsley
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 pound raw peeled and deveined medium shrimp (thawed if frozen)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: red pepper sauce for more heat!

Instructions
 

  • Spray slow cooker with nonstick spray. Add onion, bell pepper, celery, diced tomatoes, smoked sausage, creole seasoning, parsley, and thyme to slow cooker. Give it a quick stir.
  • Cover and cook on low setting 3 to 4 hours until vegetables are tender.
  • Add thawed shrimp to slow cooker and cook an additional 30 minutes or until shrimp are pink. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add a few drops of red pepper hot sauce if you want more spicy heat. Enjoy!

Kori's Tips

  • Since there are varying degrees of saltiness between Creole seasoning brands, I recommend adding salt and pepper to taste at the end. Same with hot sauce. Add at the end to get your desired heat.
  • Add the shrimp at the very end to keep them from becoming rubbery.
  • Serve over cooked rice or priced cauliflower (low carb).
