Cindy's Cajun Jumbo Shrimp Soup

Talk about JUMBO shrimp!!!!!!!! Dinner tonight was a quick one and SO flavorful...

  1. 18 jumbo shrimp steamed with 1 lb. of fresh whole okra.
  2. Tony Chachere's Cajun spice and garlic powder.
  3. Just enough water to cover the okra and I placed the frozen shrimp on top of the okra.
  4. Cover the pot and steam till shrimp or bright pink.
  5. Remove immediately and plunge into cold water.
  6. Allow to cool and peel and de-vein the shrimp.
  7. Place the shrimp in a large bowl cover and set aside.
  8. Continue to cook the okra till it's tender.
  9. Remove okra from the water and drain well.
  10. Use kitchen scissors to cut okra into bite size pieces and add to the shrimp.
  11. Season shrimp and okra with more Tony Chachere's Cajun spice, and salt and pepper to taste.
  12. Open 1 or 2 cans of Campbell's, ready to eat soup "Jazzy Jambalaya" or Campbell's, "Chicken and Sausage Gumbo" Don't add water to the soup.
  13. Simmer it all together for just a few minutes till piping hot. Cover till serving time.
  14. Serve this with a crusty French baguette. 
  15. Enjoy if you be Cajun!
