Ingredients Needed for Louisiana Casserole

The ingredients needed to make this Louisiana casserole recipe are classic cajun ingredients that come together for major flavor and texture. This meal is similar to a traditional jambalaya, but everything is cooked together in one dish. It’s savory and hearty, with warm spices that make this casserole irresistible. Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

  • Shrimp: For convenience, buy your shrimp peeled and deveined.

  • Cooked Rice: I used minute rice for this recipe, but you can make regular rice with a rice maker.
  • Yellow Onion: Adds a sweet, savory flavor and a bit of texture.
  • Red Bell Pepper: Gives the dish a beautiful color and a slightly sweet crunch.
  • Green Bell Pepper: Provides a green color, which adds contrast, making the dish look appetizing and tastes amazing!
  • Canned Fire Roasted Tomatoes: Adds the most delicious smoky flavor.
  • Butter: Cooking the vegetables in butter adds a rich, deep flavor.
  • Garlic: Freshly minced garlic is one of the best ingredients to pair with shrimp (just ask this brown butter spicy shrimp), and along with the other veggies, it adds depth and complexity.
  • Salt and Pepper: To enhance all of the flavors.
  • Cajun Seasoning: You can use a store-bought spice blend or try this homemade cajun seasoning.

Breadcrumb topping

  • Parmesan Cheese: For sharp cheesy flavor.

  • Salt and Pepper: For extra flavor.

How to Make Louisiana Casserole

Trust me when I say this is an easy recipe to follow. Most of the ingredients are ready to go! You just need to sauté the veggies, heat the sausage, and cook the shrimp, and dinner is served! The whole family will love this one. Here’s how everything comes together:

  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Sauté Veggies: Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Then add the onion, red, and green pepper to the skillet and sauté until the vegetables become tender.
  3. Sauté Sausage and Shrimp: Add the garlic, sausage, and shrimp to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, sauté until the shrimp are mostly pink.
  4. Combine All Ingredients: Add the vegetables and meat to the baking dish along with the rice, tomatoes, and cajun seasoning. Stir everything together.
  5. Mix the Topping: Mix the parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper, in a small bowl. Then sprinkle the top of the casserole with this mixture.
  6. Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the rice has had time to soak in any excess juice.
  7. Rest and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Louisiana Casserole Tips and Variations

It’s hard to get this casserole wrong. It really is so simple to put this casserole together and it tastes amazing! But here are a few tips and substitution ideas so it turns out exactly how you like it!

  • For the Topping: For the breadcrumb topping, I used plain breadcrumbs. You can try panko breadcrumbs as a substitute.
  • Thaw Frozen Shrimp: If you use frozen shrimp, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking it with the sausage and veggies. 
  • Pre-Cooked Rice: To save time, I like to use pre-cooked rice that you heat in the microwave. 5-minute rice should also work just fine.
  • Sausage: This recipe calls for andouille sausage, but you can use a kielbasa or other link sausage of your choice!
  • Spice Level: Want to spice things up? I recommend adding a seeded and diced jalapeño to the skillet with the bell peppers and onions. You can also mix in some red pepper flakes for that extra kick of heat!

Storing Leftovers

This Louisiana casserole has the best texture when it is served fresh out of the oven. However, leftovers can be stored and enjoyed for a few days after cooking. This dish makes a great lunch for the next day! Here are my tips for storing and reheating leftovers.

  • In the Refrigerator: Stored properly in an airtight container, leftovers will last up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
  • Reheating: I recommend reheating in the microwave until warmed through. I always start with using 30 second increments, so I don’t over cook the shrimp.
  • Freezing: I do not recommend freezing this recipe.

You can use jumbo or mini shrimps in this recipe, the shrimp I used was a medium-sized, standard shrimp fresh at the deli of my local grocery store. 
 
I used minute rice for this recipe but you can make regular rice with a rice maker.  To get 3 cups of cooked rice you will need to cook about 1 cup of dry rice.

Graham Cracker Crust Recipe

Every baker needs a reliable graham cracker crust recipe to have in their arsenal. This one is simple to make and so delicious! It’s my go-to recipe, from cream cheese pie to my key lime tart. While you can always use a store-bought crust, homemade tastes so much better, and it has a much better texture than a packaged crust from the store.

Ingredients You’ll Need

One of my favorite things about this pie crust recipe is that the ingredient list is short and sweet. You need only three simple ingredients to make it! Exact measurements of the ingredients can be found below in the recipe card.

  • Graham Cracker Crumbs: You can purchase graham cracker crumbs in a box down the baking aisle or make the crumbs yourself by crushing about 12 sheets of graham crackers.

How to Make a Graham Cracker Crust

This recipe only takes about 10 minutes to make! Then, you can chill the crust for 30 minutes or bake it for 12 minutes before adding your filling.

  1. Mix Ingredients: Add the graham cracker crumbs and sugar to a medium bowl and mix. Add the melted butter and mix evenly until the crumbs resemble wet sand.
  2. Press into the Pie Dish: Pour the crumb mixture into a 9-inch pie dish and use your hands or a flat-bottomed measuring cup or glass to press the crumbs evenly into the sides and bottom of the pan. Set it in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare your chosen filling, or at least 30 minutes before adding the filling.

Tips for Making Graham Cracker Crust

This delicious graham cracker crust really is so easy to make! Here are some tips and variations to make it just the way you like it.

  • Baking the Crumb Crust: Should you use a no-bake or baked graham cracker crust? It comes down to preference. No-bake crusts have more butter, making them softer and richer in flavor. Baked crusts are crisper and have a nuttier taste, and they use less butter since the oven helps bind the crust. Both types work for recipes that don’t require baking the filling.
  • Baked Crust instructions: If you want to prepare your own crust, mix 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ⅓ cup granulated sugar, and five tablespoons of melted salted butter. Press it into a 9-inch pie pan and bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes. Let it cool completely before adding your filling of choice.
  • Making Graham Cracker Crumbs: If you want to make your own graham cracker crumbs, mix 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ⅓ cup granulated sugar, and five tablespoons of melted salted butter. Press it into a 9-inch pie pan and bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes. Let it cool completely before adding your filling of choice.
  • Use Different Flavors: You can substitute the traditional honey graham cracker crumbs for another flavor of graham cracker, like, cinnamon or chocolate, you can swap them out for the same amount!  
  • Unsalted Butter: If you use unsalted butter instead of salted butter, add 1-2 dashes of salt to the graham cracker mixture.

Make Ahead

To make this graham cracker pie crust super convenient, you can make it ahead of time, and then all you will have to do is fill it and serve it! 

  • Freezer: If you want to bake it ahead and use it much later, you can! Once you have baked it and let it cool, wrap it in plastic wrap and cover it with aluminum foil. It will last 1-2 months in your freezer! When you are ready to use it, put it in your fridge to thaw.
  • Refrigerate: If you’d like to use the crust within a day or two, then after you have baked it and it has cooled, cover it with aluminum foil and store it in your fridge for 1-2 days. You can also store it the same way without baking it.

One of Buffett’s most famous sayings of wisdom is “If salary is your only source of income, you’re one step closer to poverty.”

One of Buffett’s most famous sayings of wisdom is “If salary is your only source of income, you’re one step closer to poverty.”: K-Link Health Solutions offers a range of health products and solutions for various diseases. Explore our products for optimal health.


One of Buffett's most famous sayings of wisdom is "If salary is your only source of income, you're one step closer to poverty."

Warren Buffett is an investor, entrepreneur, and philanthropist from the United States. He is one of the richest people in the world, with a net worth of 118.6 billion US dollars (2023).

One of Buffett's most famous sayings of wisdom is "If salary is your only source of income, you're one step closer to poverty."

Starting from the author scrolling social media, the author accidentally saw Warren Buffet's words of wisdom on the author's social media and immediately came to the writer's heart. The writer said to himself, "Why is it so related? "
So the author feels that this wise word is very important and relevant to the current state of the global economy. Then the question is, why are Warren Buffett's words of wisdom important and relevant?

Buffett is known as one of the most successful investors in the world. He has invested in various companies, including Coca-Cola, American Express, and Berkshire Hathaway. Buffett is also known as a wise and inspirational figure.

These words of wisdom of Buffett are important because they remind us of the importance of having more than one source of income. This is important to reduce our risk of becoming poor.

There are several reasons why Buffett argues that a salary that is the only source of income can bring us one step closer to poverty.

First, salaries can disappear at any time. We can lose our jobs due to various factors, such as layoffs, employee reductions, or bankrupt companies. This can happen due to various factors, such as economic recession, technological changes, or increasingly fierce competition.

Second, the salary may not be enough to meet the necessities of life. This can happen because of high inflation or because we have a lot of dependents. Inflation can cause the price of basic necessities to increase, so we need to increase our income to meet the needs of life. Many dependents, such as children or sick parents, can also cause us to need a higher income.

Third, salaries can be unstable. This can happen because we work as freelancers or because we work in a volatile field. Freelancers have no job security, so they can lose their jobs at any time. Volatile sectors, such as the manufacturing industry, can also experience a decline in demand, which can cause workers to lose their jobs.

Therefore, it is important for us to have more than one source of income. That way, we will have an income reserve if one of our sources of income is missing or insufficient. We can start by looking for a side job or by investing.
The quote "If salary is your only source of income, you're one step closer to poverty" means that if we rely on the salary of only one job, we will be more at risk of becoming poor. This is because there are several factors that can cause us to lose our jobs or experience a decrease in income, such as layoffs, employee reductions, inflation, or industry changes.

There are many real-life examples that support this quote. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, many people lost their jobs because their companies went bankrupt or reduced employees. This causes them to experience economic difficulties and even fall into poverty.

Another example is during an economic recession. During a recession, many companies experienced a decline in revenue, so they had to reduce their employees. This causes many people to lose their jobs and experience economic hardship.

Warren Buffett's wise words "If salary is your only source of income, you are already one step closer to poverty" is an important warning for all of us. These words remind us of the importance of having more than one source of income to reduce our risk of becoming poor.

There are three reasons why a salary as the only source of income can bring us one step closer to poverty:

Salary can disappear at any time. The salary may not be enough to meet the necessities of life. Salaries can be unstable.
To reduce our risk of becoming poor, it is important that we have more than one source of income. We can start by looking for a side job or by investing.

This Warren Buffett quote is an important reminder that we must have a strong financial plan in place to protect ourselves from risk. By having more than one source of income, we will have a reserve of income in case one of our sources of income is missing or insufficient.

Below are three tips for starting to have more than one source of income:

1. Start by thinking about what you like and what you're good at. Look for opportunities to make money from your hobbies or interests. 

2. Join a community or group that can help you develop your skills and network.  You can join the wealth program of Winners Skill International www.winnersskill.com

3. With planning and hard work, we can reduce our risk of becoming poor and improve our financial security.
