This recipe was created to keep exciting Southern food alive, along with all of the people in the world. I am transitioning global food history into nostalgic sustainable health-promoting cuisine with Protective Diet recipes. Protective Diet gumbo is layered with flavor and protective ingredients, turning our Workplace for Wellness into a plant-based Creole kitchen. When I visit Louisiana I will rent an apartment, shop in local markets for Cajun and Creole ingredients, experience the real South, and connect with its people. I will prepare this dish, celebrating the flavors of the South and my ability to enjoy healthy living as a tourist while experiencing a real taste of the town. Until then, I will transport my family and friends to the deep South with this recipe at my healthy table in Southern California.
