    Tips for making the best shrimp casserole.

    Using already cooked shrimp makes this recipe even easier as you can easily find this in the freezer department at your local grocery store. Large or jumbo sized shrimp can be used.

    More helpful tips for you.

    1. If your shrimp has not been deveined, you should devein it.
    2. Large or jumbo shrimp can be used in this recipe. Large shrimp can be used to make simple layered casserole (does not have to be butterflied). Jumbo shrimp can be butterflied and then stuffed with the stuffing.
    3. Not a fan of crab meat? You can omit it if desired.
    4. What kind of crackers work best? I like something with structure and flavor such as Ritz crackers.
    5. The easiest way to make crumbs from the crackers is to pulse them in a food processor or place them into a zip top bag and run a rolling pin over the bag.
    6. For added flavor, you can sprinkle cheese on top of your casserole or add some red pepper flakes.
