Delicious Ways to Celebrate Fat Tuesday

Mardi Gras is an indulgent holiday, a perfect excuse to eat, drink and celebrate all day long before the start of Lent. Next to king cake and party beads, you can’t forgo a meal of classic Creole and Cajun flavors. Here are some of my favorites from the archives.
