Cookbook:The Trinity

The Holy Trinity of both Cajun and Creole cuisine is made up of green peppers, onions, and celery in no specified amount or ratio. The trinity is typically sauteed in butter or a roux as the base of a recipe.

In French cuisine, the trinity (mirepoix) is made up of onions, celery, and carrots in a ratio of 2:1:1 (onions:celery:carrots).
