I'm getting ready to make Paula's Shrimp and Lobster Bisque. It calls for Paula Deen's Creole Blend Seasoning, but I do not have the receipe for that. Is this something I need to purchase or is this something you can provide the recipe for?
Thank you.

We do not have a recipe for that to pass on. You can simply replace out with a different creole or even cajun seasoning you may have in your spices!
