Oyster Casserole image

Our family loves oysters so a variety of oyster dishes are often served at family dinners. This one is a favorite and is a variation of one of my husband's grandmother's recipes. It's a winner in our family!

1 1/2 c coarse cracker crumbs
8 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

dash of nutmeg
1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, combine cracker crumbs and melted butter. Put a thin layer in bottom of a 1-quart casserole dish.
  • 2. Alternate layers of oysters and crumb mixture. Sprinkle each layer with seasonings...never have more than 2 layers of oysters. End with cracker layer.
