We are hosting a crawfish boil for a bunch of friends this weekend. We will also serve appetizers, gumbo, king cakes, etc.
My question is: what should we serve to our vegetarian friends? Also, we need to make a separate pot of corn, potatoes, etc. for them, right? So the veggies are not in contact with meat? |

| I recommend doing a non-meat red beans and rice with some cornbread. |

No, boil the corn and potatoes in the same pot with the crawfish and spices. Toss a few heads of garlic in there too. Yummmmmmmmmm.

| Love the red beans and rice idea! |

| Don't boil the veggies with the crawfish. Or boil a small portion separately so the vegetarians can eat it. Red beans and rice sounds delish, but don't inadvertently flavor it with chicken broth or something. Sounds like a fun party! |

OP, would you mind sharing your on-line source for crawfish? Have you done this before? Spring just doesn't feel the same without at least one crawfish boil and I don't think we will be able to make it home in the next few months.
Thanks! From a homesick Cajun girl |

Can you recommend a recipe that doesn't leave you longing for some meat? |
