Crawfish Fettuccine. New Music From SQRD.


Spring and crawfish go together in the south. Fortunately, frozen crawfish tails are becoming readily available everywhere so everyone can join in on the crayfish/crawdad/mudbug/yabbie fun.

Get your crawfish fix with this super creamy and cheesy pasta dish. Crawfish Fettuccine has a hint of spice and is packed with the meaty little crustaceans. I have a love-hate relationship with Velveeta, but it really works magic in this dish.

Let’s leap into the week with some electro-pop. ‘Together’ is new from Swedish artist SQRD. Why I chose to pair it with crawfish is as much a mystery as what SQRD stands for.

Check out SQRD on Facebook. You can buy the music here.

Cheers!

    I just recently started experimenting with Crawfish. They weren’t always readily available here in Minnesota! I am going to try this next time! Looks so good!
