I make a cream sauce with heavy cream/butter, it thickens up nicely. Season it, add cheese if you want, mix in crawfish tails. It's really good over fish, grits, a bed of rice, etc.
As someone drinking a glass of the bottom of a box of wine, this hits home.
I've been known to drink a warm beer from the previous night but last night's wine is always kinda off limits, doesn't age well once exposed to air...
Damn, you might have been the winner on this be cause I was reading stuff on etoufee and I'm like motherfucker I don't have anything that is needed to make it but i can get some bread and cheese, that's easy. I'll take a pic and tag you in some food related sub.
1 box fettuccine cooked, fried down trinity, cream of mushroom, cream of celery, can of rotel, 2 sticks of butter, lots of Tony’s, capful of liquid crab boil and your other obvious seasonings, and throw in your crawfish. Trust me
Crawfish Cakes (like crab cakes. Combine crawfish with chopped peppers and onions, blackening seasoning, bread crumbs or panko, and add either mayo or a raw egg to bind it together, and then pan sear and finish in oven). Or I make a crawfish bread by mixing leftover tails with chopped and sauteed onions,peppers,and tomato's. Then use boxed dinner roll mix, or crescent roll canisters, to make "bread". With dinner roll mix, you will stuff the rolls dough with crawfish mix and bake as box instructs. With crescent roll cannisters, roll out the whole piece of dough (rather than tearing into triangles), and cut into squares. Put crawfish mix in center of premade dough squares and pull up sides to completely seal crawfish mix the dough. Place on cookie sheet and baked as instructions on cannisters for regular crescent rolls. You can make dough from scratch, but I don't usually take such effort and time for leftovers. You can also take all leftover crawfish boil ingredients and lightly sauteed them before making a cream sauce by adding butter, splash of white wine, followed by shredded parmesan and heavy cream. Sautee briefly until sauce begins come together and slightly thicken. Serve over any kind of pasta.
omelet or etouffee
didn't think about omelet....
A slow, creamy scrambled egg mixed with crawfish tails and green onion is one of life's simple pleasures
Crawfish Mac & Cheese?

My answer “what do with leftover X” is usually “X omelette” Except leftover wine. My answer to that is “WTF is leftover wine?”

Ettoufee is amazing and not that hard
Based on the other comments apparently this is what I'm going to do.

Crawfish bisque
Crawfish pie.
Better question: what can’t you do…? Omelette is always a winner. Just keep ‘em fridgerated.
My mind immediately shifted to Bubba Blue’s voice… you can bbq it, pan fry, deep fry, stir fry, soup, stew, potatoes, sandwiches.
Crawfish quesadillas
Crawfish smoothies.
Curry!
Etoufee is always the answer
...you could send them to a Cajun ex-pat. 😂 😂 😂 *(*raises hand)*
