- Don't overcook the crab meat. Crab meat is very delicate and can easily be overcooked. Overcooked crab meat is tough and chewy.
- Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of cheeses will give the casserole a richer flavor. Try using a combination of cheddar, Parmesan, and Swiss cheese.
- Add some vegetables. Vegetables will add color and nutrition to the casserole. Try adding some chopped broccoli, cauliflower, or bell pepper.
- Serve the casserole hot. Baked crab casserole is best served hot. You can either serve it immediately after it's baked, or you can let it cool and then reheat it before serving.
