Crawfish and Corn Soup

This is my mother-in-law's recipe and I thought it was delish. It's a Cajun recipe she makes from her head. My husband really likes it and it was so easy to make. A bit pricey because of the seafood, but so worth it.

Crawfish and Corn Soup

1 stick butter or margarine
1 large white onion, chopped
1 large green pepper, chopped
1 pound crawfish (tail meat)
2 cans cream of potato soup (10.75 oz)
2 cans cream style corn (11.5 oz)
2 1/2 cups milk
3 tsp green onion
3 tsp fresh parsley
salt and pepper to taste

Melt butter in large soup pot. Saute onion and green pepper in butter until soft. Add crawfish and cook for 15 minutes. Add soup, corn, and milk and cook another 15 minutes. Season to taste. Garnish with green onions and parsley just before serving. Enjoy!

(Shrimp can also be substituted for the crawfish is preferred.)

That recipe looks delish! My grandma makes a crab & corn soup that I absolutely love & no one can make it like she does.
