INGREDIENTS

  • Pasta

    • 1 pound macaroni pasta, or your favorite pasta

  • Dairy

    • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
    • 🥛 2 cups heavy cream
    • 8 ounces havarti cheese, shredded
    • 8 ounces cream cheese
    • 4 ounces Gouda cheese, shredded

  • Seafood

    • 1 pound crawfish

STEPS

1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook macaroni in the boiling water until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.

2

Melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat in a saucepan. Add onions and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add crawfish tails and 1 teaspoon seafood seasoning, sauté for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

3

In another saucepan, warm 1 cup heavy cream and 1 tablespoon butter over low heat. Add havarti, cream cheese, and Gouda, melting slowly while stirring constantly. Gradually add remaining heavy cream and seafood seasoning, stirring until cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

4

Mix cooked macaroni, crawfish mixture, and cheese sauce together in a large bowl or pot. Adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or additional seafood seasoning to taste.
