luvs - when in the world did you have time to make this???? Surely the cats haven't let you stop cracking crab legs!!!!! (you know it hurts us all to read you fed them to the cats)

Edited to add the most important thing!!! This is sheer comfort food - thanks for posting it.

thanks, guys. if you make it, i wouldn't recommend adding salt.
elf, one of my cats made the casserole for me in exchange for the crab legs and a $20, lol. she wanted to borrow my car, too, but i drew the line there.
