If you’re from the Eastern Shore or are currently living anywhere near the Shore, you are probably pretty familiar with the Maryland Blue Crab. This little creature makes an appearance on quite a few picnic tables over the Memorial Day weekend.

In my family, my Grandma’s crab casserole is a big favorite. It is kind of a crab cake for everyone:
Ingredients
Small green pepper
Celery (Cut it up into pretty small bits, not those big chunks we usually do for salads.)
Tablespoon of fresh parsley
Teaspoon mustard
1 egg
1-2 tablespoons of mayo
Dash of Worcestershire sauce
Dash of salt and pepper
Pound of crab
Directions
Saute pepper and celery in a tablespoon of butter. Mix the sauted food and all the other ingredients into a casserole dish and bake the casserole for 15 minutes at 375 degrees.
Do you have a favorite Memorial Day recipe?
I use a little more mayo, but this is a typical crab dip recipe. I have lived in Baltimore most of my life and there is nothing better than crab dip, except steamed crabs with old bay seasoning. Hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday.
