Crawfish Pizza

Last night was homemade pizza night.  On the menu: crawfish pizza!!

Ingredients:

1 lb crawfish or shrimp (The seafood market I go to was closed yesterday so instead I purchased 1 package frozen cooked crawfish tails.  I never buy frozen seafood but I had no choice.)
1 1/2 cup fresh spinach
Old Bay Seasoning
Fresh shredded pepper jack cheese
1 package crescent roll pizza crust
1 8-ounce package cream cheese
1 tablespoon butter

Preheat oven to 425. Cook crawfish on moderately high heat in skillet or saucepan with Old Bay seasoning and 1 tablespoon butter.  I used about 2 tablespoons of Old Bay because I LOVE spicy food.  Heat crawfish thoroughly, drain and set aside.

Place crescent roll pizza crust on a lightly greased baking sheet.  Microwave cream cheese for 30 seconds or until it looks like a creamy frosting.  Spread cream cheese on pizza dough leaving about 1 inch for crust.  Next, place spinach, crawfish and then pepper jack cheese.  I had a few extra crawfish tails left so I placed a few on top.

This is not your normal pizza but I can guarantee that you will LOVE it.  It is absolutely amazing and reminds me of being home on the coast of Mississippi.  Enjoy!
