The Whole Shabang Crab Boil




I asked the group to give me 3 of their favorite herbs and or seasoning and said I would find a recipe tailored around them. Someone said Old Bay, Cajun and Lemon Pepper. This is the recipe I chose that all 3 she mentioned.

I have always wanted to do a Cajun boil, I will for sure be giving this a try!

What you'll need:
1T Cajun seasoning
1T old bay
1T lemon pepper
1T paprika
1T cayenne pepper
1T garlic powder
2T sugar
2 sticks butter
1/3c water
chopped garlic
shrimp/craw-fish/crab
corn/potatoes/sausage

Steps:
Mix these together in a small bowl; 1T old bay, 1T of Cajun, 1T lemon pepper, 1T of paprika, 1T of cayenne pepper, 1T garlic powder, 2T of sugar.

Put sticks of butter in a wok and stir for a bit.

Add the seasoning and mix.
Add 1/3 cup of the water, taste and add any of the seasonings to adjust to taste.

When you achieve the taste you like, then add the shrimp (with or without the shell) and or craw-fish and crab.

Optional; add corn, potatoes and or sausage, (Cook these separately first before adding into the pot).

I was diagnosed Manic Depressive when I was 15, and then at a later date it turned too Bipolar Type 2. What is Bipolar 2 Disorder? It is a form of mental illness, it is similar to Bipolar 1 except with moods cycling between high and low over time. Most of the time the "up" moods never reach full blown mania (I have had that twice in my life). The less intense elevated moods in bipolar 2 are called hypomanic episodes. Most people that have Bipolar 2 suffer more from depression, which is where the term mani depression comes from. Depressive episodes can last weeks, months and (rarely) years. I have never let being bipolar define me but I am not going to lie it has affected a lot in my life. Especially when I am in the "manic" state. Again was only twice in my life but when it happened everything durring that period of time changed! ...
