I love how versatile this recipe is. I've made it with chicken, shrimp, and even tofu. It's always delicious.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this recipe without the chicken. It was still delicious! I added some extra vegetables to make up for the lack of meat.

This recipe was a disaster. The couscous was mushy and the jambalaya was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.
