  salad topped with favorite Italian dressing and crisp
  bread. "New Orleans Cooks The Italian Way" Locovozzi &
  Mollicone (note: this is a real recipe and there is a
  whole Italian area of New Orleans which as you can see
  is spicy like cajun, but truely Italian. I have though
  of ways to make this with some other meat, because we
  just don't have alligators in Milwaukee! Maybe
  buffalo?)
