How to Make Jambalaya Vegan

Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add onion, bell pepper, and celery; cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
Add the vegan andouille sausage, and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
Add the rice and toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Pour in vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, Cajun seasoning, paprika, cayenne pepper, and liquid smoke (start with 1/2 teaspoon and add more to taste).
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the liquid is absorbed.
Stir in the black beans, corn, and green onions. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Serve hot and enjoy! Garnish with fresh parsley or green onions, if desired.
