For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the sauce. If you can't find jalapeño cheese, you can substitute with pepper jack or a mild cheddar with a pinch of cayenne. To make this dish ahead of time, prepare the crawfish mixture up to the baking step. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, add 10-15 minutes to the baking time.
