Classic Rotel Dip using crawfish tails and cajun seasoning.
Crawfish Rotel Cheese Dip
Andouille sausage, onions and peppers start this Cheese Dip recipe off - so you know it has to be good! We keep it classic with a can of Rotel and Velveeta - but finish it with my King Craw Cajun Seasoning and crawfish tails! Garnished with green onions and served with Crostini.
