Taste great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was super easy to make! We cut up hot dog to mix in since we didnt have any sausage left. It was spicy with a great texture. I loved that it was package while in the box. That definitely will help keep it fresh!

A new and simple meal
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A great one pot meal enough to fill the family with a few sides. It has a slight kick of spice to it but not too much. You can choose how you want to pair it. You can use sausage or chicken if you want.

Flavors are delightfully layered— great for a busy weeknight
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This saved me and my family a lot of meal prep headaches last week as things got super chaotic with our schedule. This was tasty, easy to prep, and the flavors were delightfully layered! Pair it with your favorite protein and dinner should be set like that!

Perfect quick dinner
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Combined with chicken, it made a quick and easy weeknight dinner the entire family loved! I mixed it with fresh sautéed veggies and a side salad and there were no leftovers. It has a little spice to it, but not overpowering. Would make it again!

Tasty with ground pork.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mix had decent flavor. I made it with ground pork sausage which added a fun bite. Cook time is a little longer than I would like for a weeknight meal, but was worth a little extra wait.

Easy One Pot Meal with Spice!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quick Dinner Idea!! Made this in one pot style. I used Beef sausage and cooked to direction. After rice was done I did taste it and felt it was missing a pinch of salt. We added fried eggs on top!

Delicious Kick!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely delicious!!! I didn't add protein to it, but we did have it with pork chops and it was absolutely amazing! Some fell on the floor and my dog grabbed some and had to drink water immediately so the spice is real, but we love it!!

"Quick, Flavorful, and So Easy to Make!"
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] "I recently tried the Zatarain's Jambalaya Rice Mix, and wow — it's packed with flavor! It has that perfect blend of spices that makes it taste homemade, but it's ready in just a few minutes. I love how easy it is to prepare — I just add sausage or shrimp, and dinner is done. The texture of the rice comes out perfect every time, and the seasoning gives it that authentic New Orleans vibe. It's become one of my go-to meals for busy nights when I still want something comforting and full of flavor."

Jazz it Up with Zatarain's!

Authentic Southern Flavor Made Easy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Zatarain's Jambalaya Rice Mix (8 oz) is a solid go-to when you want that bold Louisiana flavor without spending hours cooking. The spice blend hits the perfect balance — savory, smoky, and just the right amount of heat. It pairs great with sausage, chicken, or shrimp, and the rice always cooks up fluffy and flavorful. What I love most is how convenient it is — a quick, one-pot meal that tastes homemade, even on busy weeknights. The only reason it's not five stars is that the salt level can be a bit high if you're sensitive to sodium, and it's best when you add your own protein or veggies for balance. Overall, it's a reliable, flavorful, and easy-to-make meal base that brings a touch of New Orleans to your kitchen every time.

Great Flavor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product in exchange for a review. I made it for dinner tonight, and it was delicious! My whole family loved it. It's full of flavor and works perfectly as a stand-alone dish or as a tasty side. I've always been a fan of Zatarain's, and this Jambalaya flavor is a fantastic addition to their lineup.

Delicious and easy!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was so yummy and easy to make too! We added a pound of sausage to the dish, as well as a few other veggies to spruce it up, and it was a hit at dinner. Sometimes I find boxed rice to be too lacking in flavor out comes out super watery, but this was perfect.

Quick and easy dinner!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It can be tough to find time to make a good dinner during the work week, but this rice was so quick and easy! I whipped up some turkey sausage on the stove and then let the rice cook while I made some broccoli and was left with an easy, tasty meal!

Tasty - and gluten free!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There aren't too many exciting flavor choices available in gluten free meals, so this was a lot of fun. It was easy to make, tasty, and could have a lot of variety depending on what meat you choose to add. Would definitely buy again.

Satisfied My Craving!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you're craving jambalaya but don't have the time or all the ingredients to make it from scratch, this box is a solid option. The flavor is surprisingly close to homemade! Nice, savory, and full of flavor. The rice cooks up fluffy and is seasoned evenly, though it's definitely best when you add your own protein, I added chicken. It's not exactly the real deal, but for something quick and easy out of a box, it hits the spot!
