Ingredients

  • 1 package (8 ounces) frozen salad-style imitation crabmeat, thawed and shredded
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (4 ounces)
  • 1 medium celery stalk, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped bell pepper
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
  • 1 cup Original Bisquick™ mix
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven 400°F. Lightly grease square baking dish, 8x8x2 inches. Stir crabmeat, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese, the celery, onions and bell pepper in baking dish.
  • 2
    Beat remaining ingredients except the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese in blender on high speed 15 seconds, or with hand beater or wire whisk 1 minute, until blended. Pour over crabmeat mixture.
  • 3
    Bake about 40 minutes or until golden brown and knife inserted halfway between center and edge comes out clean. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake about 2 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Cool 15 minutes before cutting.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If you're not a lover of crab or don't happen to have it on hand, just use a 6-ounce can of tuna, drained and flaked, instead of the crab meat.
  • tip 2
    Fiesta Cheesy Crab Bake is a snap when you use Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeño peppers in place of the mozzerella and replace the bell pepper with a 4-ounce can of chopped green chilies, drained.
