I'll be making a batch of etouffee and freezing it to take with me to visit friends. My question is, should I add the green onions and parsley to the etouffee and then freeze, or freeze without them and add when the dish is about to be served? On one hand, I want the flavors to meld, but I don't want the greens to be a bunch of mush. What should I do? Perhaps both?

Add when you cool the dish for freezing.

You can reheat on location later and be ready to serve.

I would do as Otis suggested with some of the green onions and garnish. Then, once reheated, I would add more fresh just before serving. I do that with gumbo often and it works well.

You can even wait until you reheat it to add the crawfish. It will then be like fresh cooked.
