Crawfish Pasta
My oldest son took us out to dinner before he left for a job on the Princess Cruiseline as a sommelier. Needless to say, we would not see him for the next 6 months or so.

Bucket of Crawfish
We brought home half a bucket of left over crawfish, which I decided to incorporate them into a pasta dish for my youngest son before his soccer game the next day.
So here are the steps to create your own:
The most important thing for me is to use what I already have in the refrigerator, and make use of left over.

So here are the steps to create your own:
- Peel off the shells and take out the meaty part of the crawfish (use shrimps or scallops or mussels if you wish)
- In a big pot of boiling water, cook your pasta of choice until tender
- Mince half a cooking onion
- Mince half a tomatoes
- Mince 2 cloves of garlic
- Chop up some bite size okra pieces (you can replace okra with other green vegetables that you have on hand)
- Chop up 2 stalks of celery
- In a frying pan, cook your garlic, onion, and tomato with a bit of cooking oil. Season with salt and black pepper.
- After these ingredients cooked down, add your okra and celery. Season with salt and pepper
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter to your frying pan (I used margarine)
- Add 2 tablespoons of milk or skim milk
- Add your crawfish pieces
- Mix in your cooked pasta
- Season your pasta with salt and pepper to taste
- Stir up all your ingredients well
- Serve with grated Parmesan cheese
The most important thing for me is to use what I already have in the refrigerator, and make use of left over.
