Ingredients:

Serving

1 (12 oz) package frozen cooked crawfish, thawed (the crawfish can be substituted with 1 lb of shrimp
1 (10 3/4 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
green onion (chopped )
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
1 (6 oz) package kraft garlic cheese rolls (looks like a sausage link, sometimes hard to find, can use garlic powder and velveeta or similar)
salt
1 (1 lb) package angel hair pasta or 1 (1 lb) package other pastas
1/2-1 cup milk (optional)

Directions:

Chop the green onions (as much as you like-I usually just use a handful).
Open the cheese and slice it in as many pieces as possible so it can melt easily.
Set onions and cheese aside separately.
It is a good idea at this point to start a large pot of boiling water, and it should be boiling by the time the sauce is done.
To make the sauce: Melt stick of butter in a large skillet on medium heat.
Add chopped onions.
Simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions look nicely cooked.
Add the package of crawfish and let simmer for another few minutes.
Add the cheese, and once it has started to melt, add the can of soup.
Dash of salt if desired.
You can turn the heat up to medium hi.
Continue stirring until the cheese is completely melted.
If it is too thick, milk can be added to thin it out.
Cover and turn heat back down to low.
Stir occasionally so the sauce does not stick.
Now just boil the pasta according to the package instructions.
Sauce can be served over the pasta or mixed inches.
If there are leftovers, I usually store it all mixed together.
It reheats better that way.
