We had some leftover crawfish tails from a crawfish boil, and my husband had wanted me to use it for crawfish & corn soup. I couldn't find my shrimp & corn soup recipe (I have since found it, of course!) so used this one. I was hesitant at first because of all the canned soups, which I prefer to cook without. But I though, what the heck, I'll give myself a break! I wasn't disappointed. This is an easy recipe and tastes good. I am not a fan of crawfish, so I only had one bite with an actual crawfish in it. But I would happily make and eat this as a vegetarian soup for a quick meal. (I ate most of mine tonight after removing the crawfish :-) ) I used frozen (yellow whole kernel) corn instead of canned shoepeg, and I added a little bit of water and some skim milk to make up for the loss of liquid from the canned corn. Even before the Tony's & Tabasco, this was very good. I think next time I make my "famous" corn chowder, I might add 4-8 oz. of Philly. That was a good addition.
