Jessie James Decker used kitchen secret to win over NFL star husband in one weekend

Jessie James Decker knows the way to her man's heart — and it involves a little spice.

The country singer revealed how she won over her husband, Eric Decker, after just one weekend together.

"I mean we all know he loves the jambalaya that's how I sealed the deal and had him fall in love with me after one weekend," Jessie, co-author of "The Secret Sauce," told Fox News Digital.

JESSIE JAMES DECKER RAISES ATHLETIC KIDS "BAREFOOT AND BEING FREE" INSTEAD OF GLUED TO IPADS More than 13 years into their marriage, the former NFL wide receiver is still one of Jessie's biggest fans in the kitchen — although the singer admits that food isn't just fuel in the Decker household.

It's practically a love language.

"I couldn't have married someone that didn't just enjoy food," Jessie emphasized.

"And there's people out there that are like that.

They're just like a meal's a meal.

I'm like, it is an event.

It's a celebration.

Everything is." When Jessie and Eric met, the country singer said he was " a Midwestern guy" who had never had Southern Cajun food.

Now, the "Cajun Queen" chapter of her new cookbook, " The Secret Sauce ," which she wrote with her mother and sister, has earned a special place on his plate.

"I would say the ‘Cajun Queen’ chapter is probably one of his favorites because that's what I started cooking because my mom pretty much fed us ninety percent Cajun growing up and… Cajun food has so much flavor." He’s also become one of his wife's most trusted taste testers, although Jessie said he tends to tread lightly when a dish doesn't quite hit the mark.
