Let’s Zydeco

HOT!

It’s summer, it’s New Orleans, it’s HOT!

In Honor of Vieux To Do: Shrimp, Creole Tomato, & Zydeco

Vieux To Do” is this weekend in the French Quarter in New Orleans, LA.  This festival is three in one: Creole Tomato, Cajun Zydeco Music, and Seafood Festivals.  To get ourselves ready to eat, drink, dance and thoroughly enjoy the heat we prepared a shrimp dish along with a creole tomato salad.  We played Zydeco music, opened a favorite bottle of wine and Zydecoed as we cooked.  Recipes posted on RV Cajun Cooking.  Join us as we enjoy the bounty South Louisiana offers…

After cooking and practicing our Zydeco dancing in the kitchen – we are ready for the Vieux To Do.  Join us at the NOLA Trifecta!
