Louisiana Crawfish Étouffée
Crawfish étouffée is a Cajun classic. Here in Louisiana, there's nothing better to make during crawfish season. You can substitute shrimp when crawfish are out of season. It's even better when served with hot garlic French bread! Start cooking the rice first since this is a quick dish.
New Year Spinach Fettuccine with Scallops
I made this with my fiancee for a fancy New Year's Eve dinner. If you use sea scallops and not bay scallops, cut them into quarters before adding them to the pasta.
Italian Potato Salad
My Nonnie used to make this potato salad for me whenever I was home for the holidays. It's a great alternative to mayo-based potato salads. Red wine vinegar works well, too.
