What are some easy cajun and/or creole recipes?
I’m a college student living in an apt for the first time. I LOVE to cook, but I’m no chef. I need something easy and somewhat inexpensive.
I love seafood, especially shrimp and crab. I like chicken and pork as well but NO beef. And I know that creole and cajun food sometimes include crayfish but I dont have access to them in this small town. I also love spicy food. So if any recipes come to mind please share!! 
Creole and Cajun dishes are my favorites. You can always substitute shrimp for crawfish in your recipes. Here are some links that I saved:
