Cheesy Crab Bake with Veggie Noodles

I know it's been a while, but the stress levels have been through the roof the past few weeks and I've devoted what little time I have towards my mental health and getting things done for work. I've stored away a few good recipes that I got to make during this time and this one was delicious. Definitely a make again and definitely a great way to welcome in spring time. Anyway, blah, blah, blah, on to the the food!



I've been digging through memories of the 90's bands that I loved growing up. A lot of them don't hold up but I was surprised to come across a lot that I could still sing out loud to. This band can still get it. I give you The Cardigans:


Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 lbs crab meat
  • 3 stalks of green onion diced
  • 3 large carrots, peeled and washed
  • 1 jar of alfredo sauce ( I used Newmans Garlic Alfredo)
  • 2 tbsps olive oil
  • 2 tbsps lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup fresh chopped parsley
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup parmesan
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • salt and pepper
Directions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. 
  • Using a spiralizer, spiralize your carrots for the noodles. 
  • In a pan with your olive oil, place your carrot noodles, add your lemon, salt and pepper and parsley. Cook until the carrots are softened. 
  • In a saute pan place your whipping cream, cheeses and garlic powder. Simmer until the cheese is melted.
  • In a large baking dish, add your crab, alfredo, cheese sauce and noodles. Mix well until the crab and noodles are completely coated and incorporated. 
  • Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
Happy Eating Everyone!
