Crawfish Pasta Salad

1 bag 12 ounce size of rotini pasta
1 pound crawfish tails
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup ketchup
Zatarain's crab boil
Tabasco (to taste)
Salt (to taste)





Boil the rotini noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside. In a separate pot, season water with crab boil and add crawfish. Bring to a boil, remove from heat. Let the crawfish soak in the seasoned water. This way the crawfish can absorb more flavor. Drain before combining with other ingredients.

In a glass bowl, make a dressing with the mayonnaise, ketchup and Tabasco. Toss in the noodles, celery, and crawfish. Serve warm or refrigerate and serve cold.
