Method:
Bake potatoes in 425 for 45 minutes. (Or in the micro). When cool to the touch, cut potatoes lengthwise to remove just the top third. Scoop out pulp, leaving a firm shell about 1/4" thick. Combine potato pulp, butter, milk, onion, cheese and salt. Whip until smooth. Stir in crawfish. Stuff shells with crawfish mixture and sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 425 for 10 minutes. Garnish with parsley. These freeze well. 

In history the way of annihilation is invariably prepared by inward degeneration, by decrease of life. Only then can a shock from outside put an end to the whole.
