You might want to try the shrimp and andouille mini muffins in the recipe book as an app or snack with cocktails. I think they need a sauce and I use Cousin's Creole Tomato Dressing for them, but a white or red remoulade works great.

Actually done these a couple of times with great success. It was a "maybe" I was debating on and probably will be on the menu now.

Seems like most agree on gumbo. Id rather do this than jambayala.

I just recently turned bbq shrimp into a dip which goes further. This really just depends on the price of shrimp I guess.

Is there a legit bread pudding recipe in the guide? Or a better one I should use? I have a ton of resource material at home to look through as well.

I also thought about doing some crawfish beignets. Thoughts?

Doing gumbo will be fine. Won't really go with the maque choux, but you don't need that.

I'd like your recipe for that. Seems like I've seen one on here, but I can't find it in my stuff.

There may be. I'm not much of a dessert maker, but I think some folks will come along who have a tried and true recipe. It's not too difficult to make a custard, season and bake. I made a savory one from time to time. Picking a good sauce is important to me. You could start a separate thread on that.

I have one in the recipe book. It's not really a beignet. You make them with angel hair pasta and there's a sauce with them. You can put them together early and keep them on a baking sheet in the fridge until you're ready to fry them. We've served them a gazillion times and they are always eaten up. I think they must have the sauce. It's one of those things in which the app and the sauce are necessary together to create the big bang.

Ruffino's shrimp corn dogs are also always a hit. Recipe is on the web and Ruffin gave us the sauce recipe here a while back. I can't recall whether the sauce is on the web, but I have it if need be. Always a crowd pleaser. They do look a little like man weenies, though.

I have a picture of some somewhere.
