If you need to go quick and easy, I think this is 80% as good as most home made gumbos i've had.

Gumbo Base

About as good as most restaurant gumbos.
I like it for Chicken and Sausage gumbo, but seafood is great too.

Here's a thread with some homemade recipes. Most take several hours if you do it right.

Gumbo in a box? 8-\

Crusader is in Sweeden... Possibly not a Lot of Zatarans products there . :-)

Scratch the Okra and Tomato, and use this one.

I also advise to use a few boxes of chicken broth instead of water. This comes from an excellent cookbook and I would end up taking 1/2 the night typing out this same recipe...

If you have questions feel free to ask.

Easy microwave roux. When making a microwave roux don't go the full 20 min at once, do it in 5 minute increments and keep in mind that you want to stop just before you reach your desired color as it will continue to cook a little after you take it out.

Be careful. Hot roux is oil and will burn the crap out of you.

We have a version of andouille that I could use. Not as good as the real thing but I think it would do the job.

Re: GUMBO
 

Use it...
