One of my favorite casseroles! A little rich but a lot tasty! Though we like "cheesy", we cut back some on the cheese. If I double the recipe, I then use a 9x13 pan...again, cutting back on the cheese! (from a Paula Deen recipe)

Season the shrimp with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the shrimp.
Cook the shrimp until they are pink and opaque throughout. This will typically take about 3-4 minutes per side.
Do not overcook the shrimp. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
Use a creamy sauce to bind the casserole together. This will help to create a rich and flavorful dish.
Top the casserole with cheese before baking. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
Bake the casserole until it is bubbly and the cheese is melted. This will typically take about 20-25 minutes.
Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent the casserole from falling apart.
