To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1 teaspoon of dried thyme

To begin, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Cook the cannelloni tubes according to the package instructions and set them aside to cool. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and Andouille sausage over medium-high heat. Add the onion, green bell pepper, and garlic and cook until the vegetables are tender.
Next, add the can of diced tomatoes, chicken broth, Cajun seasoning, thyme, oregano, and cayenne pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
To assemble the Jambalaya-Stuffed Canneloni, spoon the meat mixture into each cannelloni tube and place them in a baking dish. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the cannelloni and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
