What is the difference between cajun and creole seasoning? Creole vs. Cajun

Truly there isn’t a huge difference aside from Creole having more ingredients where cajun is traditionally just a few spices. Both are great options and it is my favorite way to do seafood!

Seafood boil bag is just taking seafood, throwing it in an oven bag and adding this recipe with some butter and lemon! It is the simplest best tasting thing on earth.

You can make as much or as little of this as you want. Feel free to make a few batches and just keep it in a container to have on hand for the rest of the year! If you want to grind up the spices as well you can definitely do that to get it into a more powdery substance.
