Seafood and eggs have been combined together for centuries throughout the world's foodways. This crawfish and egg dish is as good as any, especially on the last morning at the camp when you have various trimmings of food to use up. It's filling, soulful, delicious, and most importantly gives you the fuel to push on with mid-morning tasks around the camp.
