Yeah THP, but it's too late and you wouldn't want a close up of it today. I should have done a couple of pics plating it up, it was damn tasty though. The hush puppies with the andouille were killer.

Well stated, Paulky - Everyone's dishes are total winners! I wish I could visit everyone and sit down for dinner with all you brilliant chefs! I can't wait to see what the others come up with
I've seen stuffed mirlitons (chayote) before but more like stuffed peppers, and not deep fried. Those deep fried bowls of goodness look awesome (you have to look close lol). Did you come up with that? Either way... slammin'! And the hush puppies are creative too. Flavors sound awesome.
I forgot to put the proof of life in my teasers so I'm skipping straight to the dish!
Shrimp Creole
Started with the trinity
then tomatoes diced and pureed
added bay leaf, garlic, salt, cayenne, thyme, parsley, salt
then the shrimps go in.
Put rice on a dish and fashion a hole in the center.
Pour dish into the hole.
Finished the plating with with Christmas colors--red and green Thai hots diced and sprinkled on.
Hot Stuff that is an absolutely delicious lookin bowl of goodness, as paulky said, straight and to the point. I gotta try that one

+1 Dave. This is gonna be a tough SOB vote, the goodness just keeps on flowing and we ain't done yet.
You makin' jambalaya?
This will be one tough SOB vote! Until then, I salute you all!+1 Dave. This is gonna be a tough SOB vote, the goodness just keeps on flowing and we ain't done yet.
I know how you feel, except my failure last month wasn't technical, no one to blame but me for missing the posting deadline by minutes.
Just bout to go to work so no time
Yes Sir I sure was
If it were up to me...(and it never will be) I'd allow that wonderful pot-O-goodness to stand as your entry.
WOW!!! 
You all have me drooling in my morning coffee 
However, after seeing everyone's posts, I think I might sit this out. I mean how on earth can I compete with all of this greatness. Paulky, even if I enter, I think I would be voting for you and not my own dish.
TB, you and Paulky really have a tie in my opinion. Like you said, I'd push grandma down the stairs in her wheelchair to get at your plate of goodness.
Hot Stuff, WTF??? Did you somehow sneak in my house yesterday and steal my ideas I had written down?
Looks great and I just hope mine turns out looking as good as yours.

I wish I could take 100% credit for the Pirogues, there are recipies out there for eggplant and mirliton deep fried pirouges, I just changed the filling to Etouffee.
