Well I have officially found the most underrated flavor combination in the savory world guys – BACON AND CRAB! Where the beep have I been?! This is beyond delicious and truly one of my favorite comfort food dishes we have ever made here on the blog. Which is something I never thought I’d say in a million years ha!

I love making this dish as an appetizer to serve with some crackers, toasted bread, veggies, anything you want. It is crazy good and addicting and the scent of it cooking along will have you salivating. Thank goodness it only takes 25 minutes to cook because waiting for this and smelling it in the kitchen was low key impossible. Jord and I were hovered over our stovetop devouring the entire thing. Although we did save a lot for Ezra and Brody’s nanny too because she is obsessed with crab anything.

I have a feeling you guys are going to love this recipe so much. I cannot wait to hear what you think!
