Yaaaay!!!!! It's Mudbug Season!!!

Hey Hey Hey!!! I am absolutely ECSTATIC about crawfish season. It is my favorite food and nothing else (food wise :/) makes me happier.  With my recent healthy life change I decided to get the skinny on crawfish and whether or not I can partake as often as I had in my past years.  I found out a lot I didn't know about those little red heads.
Crawfish are native to Louisiana, even though other Southern states have them, they originated here. Yea Baby!!!  I know they say eat everything in moderation or small portions but it takes 7lbs of shelled crawfish to provide 1 lb of unpeeled crawfish, sO, that means I'll be eating 7lbs as often as I can. LOL They are LOW in fat and calories, high in protein and minerals and are suggested to be included in diets of people who are have high cholesterol.  Just so you know, according to my calorie counter on my Kindle Fire, 5lbs of shelled crawfish is 538 calories, that is 107.6 calories per pound.  Enjoy!  

Be Dazzling!
