How to Make Crawfish Pie - An Easy Crawfish Pie Recipe

cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Reduced-fat cheese lowers calories while still melting well.

Defrost the two ready prepared pie shells.

Cut around the edges of the pie shell to remove the top layer and set it aside.

Turn over the pie shell onto a plate and shake it out, then flatten it out to use as the top for the other pie shell.

Mix the 2 cups of crawfish with 1 cup of chilled cooked rice.

Pour the crawfish and rice mixture into one of the pie shells and spread it around, pressing it down.

Place the other pie shell on top of the filled shell.

Use a fork to mesh the edges together to seal it, adding a little water if needed.

Make four slits in the top for air to escape.

Optionally, place an aluminum foil liner around the thick crust to prevent burning.

Place the pie in a preheated 375°F oven and bake for 50 minutes.

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before cutting and serving.
