My Gluten Free Gumbo is full of flavor, no need for the traditional flour-based roux. The best part? It takes just 1 hour to make!

It's almost Mardi Gras time and nothing is more iconic (short of catching beads and eating king cake) than diving into a big bowl of steamy gumbo. But for those of us who are gluten-free or Paleo the classic roux base makes it impossible for us to eat.

I am here to rescue your Mardi Gras celebration! My recipe combines all of your favorite flavors – Andouille sausage, shrimp, and okra – without the flour based roux. And I promise you won't miss it! Feel free to change up the meats (chicken works great with sausage) or go straight vegetarian. If you are Paleo, omit the rice.

Although making gumbo may sound complex, it will be ready in less than an hour. It's also perfect to make it ahead of time. I think the flavors really develop on Day 2 or even Day 3! Have left overs or want some extra for 911 meal? Gumbo freezes great; just leave the rice out if you do. Laissez le bon temp rouler!
