Crawfish Casserole image

As I stated in my introduction, I like all kinds of seafood. Shrimp being on the "expensive" side, I decided to use crawfish tails. I call them the "poor man's" shrimp. Add a salad and roll for a meal. This recipe is included in Sylvia Woods' cookbook, Sylvia's Family Soul Food Cookbook.
