Bunch's Crab Casserole image

This is my grandmother's recipe - 'Bunch' is short for 'Honeybunch,' our pet name for her. It is always a huge hit and it can be constructed the night before if need be. Just allow a little extra cooking time since the dish will be cold from refrigeration.

I'm not a big fan of crab, but I really enjoyed this casserole. The crab was tender and flavorful, and the sauce was creamy and rich. I would definitely make this again.

This crab casserole is so easy to make and it's always a hit with my guests. I love that I can use canned crab, which makes it a more affordable dish.

This is my go-to recipe for crab casserole. It's easy to make and always turns out great. I love that I can use fresh or frozen crab, and that it's a one-dish meal.

I've made this casserole several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of crab, shrimp, and cheese is irresistible. I like to add a little extra Old Bay seasoning to give it a bit of a kick.
