Mardi Gras Tips

"Mardi Gras party? Serve spicy creole favorites like Jambalaya, New Orleans Best Gumbo and Bread Pudding with Bourbon Sauce."

"Creole cuisine, based on French traditions, is subtler and more refined, while Cajun cooking is bolder and more rustic."

Karen, Editor - BettyCrocker.com

"Surprise! Whoever finds the baby figurine in their piece of King Cake earns special privileges, but must also supply next year's King Cake!"
