RECIPE REVIEWS
Hi there Rhonda, I am going to make this recipe this weekend. I am just curious if you incorporated the unused bread that you took from the french loaf back into the shrimp mixture or not. Your recipe did not say if you did or not. It just said set aside. Would you please let me know. By the way I am from Louisiana also like your husband, but I am from Bossier City, the northwest part of Louisiana. I would not be considered Cajun. Of course, I have been told anyone living north of Breau Bridge is a Red Neck. LOL Let me know about the bread scooped from the french loaf. Thanks, Julie
I'm sure you will enjoy this recipe! I usually throw the scooped out bread away or make croutons out of them. Let me know how it turns out. Enjoy!
