Notes

Sometimes it’s the tiny details that take homemade dishes from “good” to “incredible.” Shrimp casserole is no exception!

Easy Upgrades:

  • Garlic Butter Drizzle: Melt butter with minced garlic and pour over the casserole right before serving.
  • Fresh Herbs Finish: Always toss a handful of chopped parsley, basil, or dill on top.
  • Panko Breadcrumb Crunch: Toast panko crumbs in butter and sprinkle them over the casserole for a crunchy topping.
  • A Touch of Heat: A few red pepper flakes or a swirl of sriracha livens things up without overpowering the dish.

📝 Bonus Tip:

“A tiny squeeze of lemon over the casserole adds a restaurant-style brightness that everyone notices but can’t quite name.”
