Tag: Calories in crawfish

Yes, crawfish do have calories, and for a 3-ounce serving of boiled crawfish meat, you can expect around 70 to 80 calories. This makes the popular freshwater crustacean a low-calorie, high-protein seafood option for those mindful of their diet.

A single serving of peeled crawfish meat contains just 70 calories, but the total amount dramatically increases depending on how a Louisiana style crawfish boil is prepared and what sides are included. The total calorie count is influenced by added ingredients like potatoes, corn, sausage, and especially the generous use of butter.
