This was great!! I didn't have the exact seasonings listed so I added my own for taste and it turned out Great. I left everything else the same just added more heavy pint since sauce thickens. I will use this recipe again.
This was wonderful! I did halve the butter (and supplemented a little olive oil instead) and used fat free half & half. Topped with some panko--it was so delicious. I've been looking for something new to make with crawfish tails and this one is going into the rotation for sure. Thanks!
Oh Ya-Ya yeah! this is one good dish. My only changes are to use another pasta- bowties cavatelle- even linguine (the noodles don't have enough bite for me). A comfort food from LA and very welcome here by me! Rich yes- but don't skimp trying to make it less especially on the cheese- but you can use half and half if that salves your conscience a bit. And you can use the lighter butter there also the I Can't believe its not butter sticks give pretty decent results. Try this one out you will like the mac and cheese creaminess and the veg and the crawfish. And do add the mushrooms it's worth it- make sure you use fresh. To tighten up the dish a bit I put it in the broiler with a dusting of bread crumbs on top and that really sets it off! Thanks for posting this good recipe Janessa. Love the mudbugs!
Easy to make and quick. I followed recipe exactly as written but found it to be too salty wish I had added the Tony's gradually (not sure what I was thinking) we like spicey so that wasn't a problem just to salty. Worth trying the recipe just pay attention to the salty factor.
This recipe was quite good but the cheese sauce overwhelms the crawfish. After tasting I added some imitation crabmeat 1/2 cup or so. The crab brought out a more pronounced flavor.
Too SALTY! DO NOT use 2 tbl sp of Tony Chachere's...maybe one! It wouldve been very good w/o all the salt! I used a lb of shrimp instead of crawfish and followed the recipe exactly with everything else!
It was ok by itself but I set it over the top with help from the Holy Spirit add some Velveeta rotel tomatoes (original) and some evaporated milk I also did half crawfish and half shrimp... Incredible gotta share it can't keep it in Hallelujah!!!!
Doubled onions, added minced pickled jalapeno, doubled fresh ground black pepper, substituted provolone for the cheddar, simmered heavy cream to thicken, added a little Worcestershire and fresh crab claw meat just before serving and finely diced green onion leaves. Seasoned Cajun seafood lovers asked for my recipe. Served over garlic buttered fettuccine with lightly garliced french bread with a good white wine and Heineken beer for those that preferred. Raves from everyone. A gourmet meal.
