Oh Bonita.......I'm giggling like a school girl as I listen to Raymond laugh. He's a keeper.this recipe looks absolutely amazing. I would add a buttered Ritz cracker topping for some crunch.
Yes! I , too, would skip the cheese on top and add a buttery cracker topping. 👍👍

Have a great day ❤
Irish made cheddar cheese is the best cheese I have ever had
I know right! We have a market here that sells special cheeses and the package is as lovely as the Irish cheese. Thank you for stopping by this morning. I hope you get to make our new recipe and have a wonderful day!! :) Bonita
My mouth is watering just watching you TRY to deshell that crabmeat!! I’m also laughing with you as you try! 🤣😂🤣
Going to watch the “Cod au Gratin” video next. That sounds delicious, too. Thank you both so much…❤
Haha that is so wonderful! Thank you so much for stopping by and enjoying our video and recipe. We laugh so hard with me trying to remove the meat from those crab legs. So funny!!! :) Enjoy Bonita
Nutcrackers! We Westcoasters use ‘em.
what a treat! just a tip - the quickest way to get out the flour lumps is to use a spatula (the kind you flip eggs with). You smash the lumps and gently break it against the bottom of the pan super quick.
Great idea to use Brie! Never thought of that. I will also try adding it to my macaroni cheese dish! Thanks again for another great video.
It is so lovely in there, plus I'm sure it would make a lovely sauce for mac and cheese. Thank you for stopping by and enjoy to the fullest!! Bonita
Excellent ❤❤❤❤
Thank you :) Bonita
Thank you for the video! I think I can make this. We both love crab and I am going to make this. Thank you Bonita and Raymond! E
That is so wonderful Emmy, I'm so glad you stopped by and it is indeed a easy recipe to make and delicious. Enjoy to the fullest!! Bonita
❤😂
👍👍🏝❤
If you use kitchen sheers and cut up through the white shell, you can get the meat out easily
Right! Haha mom said the same thing. But the crab legs was so hot I just worked extra hard. The other crab legs got opened a lot easier and we enjoyed every taste. Thank you so much for stopping by and enjoy our new recipe to the fullest!!! Thank you for you tip on opening them. :) Bonita
as you said bonita EVERYTHING !!!!! IS SOOO EXPENSIVE @@ if..i was going to do a seafood dish... like this... id be doing canned/frzn... make the sauce.. the steam everything together.... dump the cheese sauce over it hit it with a dash of old bay....cook it like you did and serve it over noodles/rice/bisquits/ saltine cracker/ whatever...i used to save up from christmas/march....and buy seafood frzn... scallops/ clams/ frzn lobster/ shrimp canned/frzn. make a roue thick kind of bisque with the seafood juices and add wide noodles add seafood... and that..... was my brothers birthday meal from me.... he LOVED LOVED SEAFOOD....his wife dispised it and wouldnt let him have it in the house . she didnt want the house to smell.. so unless.. he was eating out...he wouldnt be able to have it. it was a thrill.. to see him walk into the house and have it saturated with the smell of seafood. and you could see the excitment..;];]; he got ALL OF IT !!!! I DIDNT SAVE ANY BACK... it was all for him.. hes been gone 3 yrs on memorial day ...i just hope hes SWIMMING IN SEAFOOD where ever he is... cause his wife cant stop him now. thank you for a great video....
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful story about your brother and his love for seafood. So sorry for your loss it sounds like you both had a lovely sibling relationship. Bless you and I'm sure he is swimming in seafood and in a good place. Have a wonderful day and thank you for stopping by. :) Bonita
@@bonitaskitchen bonita thank you.. i LOVE your crableg cheese sauce !!!! i bet you both ate til you waddled !!!! i know i sure would have... im sorry..it WASNT MEANT to out shine your reciepe...i was just trying to relate to what i used to do. thank you for the condolences... his wife/i did have a good relationship while i was growing up... then she just started getting spiteful..anything her husband/kids did /say... she would tear to bits.and make you feel worthless. it was soo sad. i dont know if it was menapause/ maybe bipolarizum/ or what... but she wasnt nice and jumped at ANY oppertunity to rip ppl apart on anything...she died 8 months after my brother did..she gave up. no one was around her to degrade anymore. and she had plenty.. of time to be alone.... and think. i dont know if she ever asked for forgivness or was even saved...all she wanted was a grave side service and be done. she got it...but the kids wanted a reception after.. which they did... it was the most "freeing " feeling those kids had in a long time...he was 76 she was 74. when they died.. all i know... is that she has got ALOT.. of repenting or whatever you call it...to do now... if they are together.. i hope she is the happiest ever...IF.. GOD has forgiven her...shes GOT 50 YRS that i know of.. to fix.
@@pattylevasseur4041 Thank you for your reply and I'm totally ok with our viewers sharing their spin on a recipe and what you would do different. We are never to old to learn and I'm all about sharing my love of cooking and baking with our viewers. We shared half of the meal and of course enjoyed the rest. I'm sure God did forgive her and welcomed her in to his home, I do hope her kids forgave her because life is to short to keep all of that inside. Bless them for respecting her wishes and their own. Have a wonderful week ahead. Bonita
@@bonitaskitchen AMEN
