RICH & CREAMY CRAWFISH OR SHRIMP PASTA W/ CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• 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.
