SLOW COOKER GUMBO (WHOLE30, PALEO)
Packed with Creole and Cajun flavors, this easy gumbo recipe is sure to please. Not just easy this is healthy too being both whole30 and paleo compliant.
Mardi Gras is here! It’s Fat Tuesday. How could I not make gumbo?? Frankly I’m shocked that I haven’t posted a gumbo recipe already. Gumbo is one of the meals I personally think is made for the slow cooker: cooks low & slow…better the next day. Kind of like chili.
