Seafood Casserole

 

 

MM MMMmmm Mmmmmmm...I made a Seafood Casserole (sent to me by Miss LB) the other night for dinner and it pretty much left the whole household at a loss for words. I had a huge craving for some shellfish since my walk on the beach on Sunday, which was delightful, so I decided to take a stab at this wonderful dish. A short while later, the fam was in heaven with a glass of chilled white wine and a meal that was better than take out!

I did change the recipe a little, as the original called for walnuts, and I def wasn't having that. I was also surprised to find how easy this was too make, taking all of 25 minutes! The dish can be served as a simple casserole or cook up some pasta to accompany the flavors!

This is a wonderful dish for dinner parties, evening at home, or making dinner for that date you have coming up. Show 'em whatcha got!
