HEY BETTY!!!!!!!! WRONG picture for this recipe. I've never seen shrimp gumbo that looked like shredded beef tacos before.(smile)I've been making this for years (or very similar)and mom always called it shrimp creole. After ladeling creole over the hot rice, top with shredded pepper jack cheese and peeled chopped cucumbers.
