I found the basic recipe for this online a few years ago. I omitted mushroom soup (not my thing), and added hot pork sausage, as a request from my boss at the time. Prep time is a guess (depending on the crawfish you use), but they're easy to make and i've never had leftovers!
Ingredients:
1 -2 lb
frozen
crawfish
, tailmeat cleaned
1 ½ lbs
Velveeta cheese
, cubed
(usually only use 1/2 to 3/4 block)
1 lb
ground spicy
pork sausage
(I use Jimmy Dean)
24
pistolette
rolls
(usually 2 bags)
cajun seasoning
, to taste
(I use Hebert's or Tony Chachere's)
Directions:
1
Clean crawfish. Leave in bowl of cold water until ready to use.
2
Brown sausage per package directions; drain.
3
Add Velveeta and crawfish to sausage. Cook on medium heat, until Velveeta is melted, stirring often.
4
Remove from heat. Using a spoon, poke an opening into each pistolette.
5
Spoon 1 1/2 tbsp crawfish mixture into each roll. Place on lightly greased baking sheet. Brush with butter, if desired.
6
Bake per package directions (usually 12 minutes). Cool 5-10 minutes (best served warm!), and enjoy!

Autumn 2006 PAC:
AWESOME! GREAT! WONDERFUL!! I could use several more adjectives, but those describe it best. This was a quick supper idea and my family really loved it. It makes a bunch and I froze some for later. They freeze well, as hubby had some in his lunch yesterday.
I had made the stuffed Pistolettes before with ground round and broccoli, but THIS was a very different dish.
THANKS CHRISTY M. for a new favorite at my house.
