Creole Gumbo with Lentils

Creole Gumbo with Lentils is a lower carbohydrate version of this Louisiana classic. Made without a roux, Creole Gumbo with Lentils is very flavorful and hearty; there is no need to serve it over or with additional rice. Incorporating the “Holy Trinity” ingredients of Louisiana’s Creole and Cajun cuisines, okra and the all-important seasonings, Creole Gumbo with Lentils is a dish we’re sure you will enjoy. Start out with an Heirloom Tomato Caprese Salad, then serve Creole Gumbo with Lentils with a Louisiana-style hot sauce and filé powder at the table, accompanied by a medium-bodied red wine, like Montepulciano d’Abruzzo or Pinot Noir.

Total Time: 2 hours, 15 minutes. Serves 6.
