Directions
Inexpensive (But Tasty) Imitation Seafood Bake, I love crab and lobster but I don’t have the budget for it – so I have started buying imitation crab and lobster when it is on sale I was playing around with it tonight and I really liked the result I think you could make some changes to suit your tastes – but this was a good starting point for me It started as a variation of creamed chipped beef and ended up here I hope you like it I think this would double pretty easily, but probably you would need larger pans , This was good and easy to make I followed the recipe as written except I added more cheese used mozz and parm We thought that it lacked a bit in taste i had added about four shakes of red hot Hubby added some old bay and he liked that We ate it on crackers

Add the Milk All at Once, Whisking to Blend and Then Stir Almost Constantly to Keep the Milk from Sticking to the Bottom of the Pan. It Will Thicken, Though It May Take a Few Minutes. While Stirring, Add as Much Pepper as You Like (use a Few Twists of a Pepper Grinder. Add a Couple of Dashes of Tobasco, If Using. Once Mixture Has Thickened, Remove from Heat. I Like the Thickness to Be Such That If I Dip a Butter Knife Into It, the Sauce Clings but No Thicker. If You Need to Thin It Out, Just Add a Small Amount of Milk. |

I Served It Over a Slice of Homemade Wheat Bread - but I Suspect It Would Be Delicious Over an English Muffin or Other Bread. |
