Gumbo

My grandmothers gumbo was one of my favorite things to eat before switching to a plant based diet.  I think I have finally got it down though! You can change up what you want in the gumbo.  I use Tofurkey Sausages but you could use something else if you like.   This makes enough to feed about 6 people.  Serve it over rice or with bread. It is a little more pricey per serving, but it is a great meal for a dinner party. Enjoy!

Estimated Cost Per Serving: $1.75 -@2.50
