All things fall/winter

it's not really a recipe per se, but acorn squash with butter/brown sugar reminds me of fall.

When it gets cool I always make my favorite easy easy soup. As you can see from the list of ingredients, it is not low fat, but it is SO YUM YUM & easy.

Crawfish Corn Potato Soup

1 stick butter
1 chopped onion
1 bunch chopped green onions
8 oz package mushrooms (sliced)
8 oz cream cheese
Quart of 1/2 & 1/2
2 cans corn (drained)
2 can potato soup
1 pack crawfish tails (12-16 oz)

Melt the stick of butter, sautee onion, green onions, and mushrooms. When these are soft, add cream cheese, 1/2 & 1/2, corn, soup, & crawfish. Season to taste (I use Tony's, but I think that's a Louisiana thing). Cook about an hour, but the longer you let it cook together, the better!

I sometimes add a can of new potatoes if I want to make it chunkier (and I usually do). I can usually find frozen crawfish tails at Walmart - even in Texas - I use the Bernard's brand & I rinse them after they are thawed - I don't like all that "stuff" on them. You can substitute shrimp as well, but I never have.
