Wayde's Cajun Jambalaya Pasta Recipe #138607
Awesome.....This is a recipe I took from a cookbook called Cooking New Orleans Style and tweaked it until I got it how I wanted. It was originally called "Crawfish Fettuccine" but I renamed it after Wayde J. a good buddy of mine! The recipe now is really quite different.
