A New Orleans tradition. Since 1889. One pot. Made with real vegetables. No MSG added (Except those naturally occurring glutamates). 30 minutes. Just add meat! Rice is a major Louisiana crop and a kitchen staple. This beloved dish evolved as home cooks discovered that adding spices and leftover meat would create rice that tastes a whole lot better - even if it looks a little dirty. No colors from artificial sources. Zatarain's has been the leader in authentic New Orleans style food since 1889. So when you want great flavor, jazz it up with Zatarain's.
