CRAB & CREAM CHEESE BREAKFAST BAKE
Found this on lanierbb.com when I was looking at some Bed & Breakfast's for a friend. You can add your favorite herbs and seasonings to make it your own. Update - 12/25/08 - please leave it in a little longer(about 55-60 minutes - while watching it) and make sure your items are all at room. Ina Garten said on one program that the items such as cream cheese, butter, eggs, should be left out overnight. I doubt whether I would leave the butter out but the rest would be OK.;)

CREAMY CRAB CASSEROLE
A recipe from my old English teacher who makes this every Christmas Eve for her family. My family joined theirs one Christmas Eve and fell in love with this entree! I couldn't find white Worcestershire sauce, so I just used the regular. Also, if you're on a budget, crab can be expensive at times, so I've done half crab/half shrimp in this recipe and it's just as great.
