crawfish fettuccine
(1 rating)
In the Spring time in Louisiana it is prime crawfish season. Traditionally on Good Friday we boil crawfish so we generally have leftover crawfish tails. This is a great dish to use up those crawfish tails, but you can also you the packaged 1lb bags. This recipe is a crowd pleaser!! People have told me that they don't like crawfish fettuccine and love this. The Mexican Velveeta gives it a little kick so if you don't like too much spice go easy on the creole seasoning. We generally serve this with a green salad and bread BAM easy meal! This recipe can be cut in half for the average family.
