SOAK / SAUTÉ / COMBINE / BAKE
Start with softened bread, not dry crumbs.
The bread stands in the measured half-cup of water for fifteen minutes. Sauté the vegetables separately, then combine the bread, cheese, crab, and egg mixture in the order below.
BEFORE THE OVEN
One combined mixture
Keep the listed water with the bread; it becomes part of the casserole. The vegetables and finely ground cannabis cook together in the skillet.
FOOD-SAFETY GUIDANCE
Check the center: 165°F
Use a food thermometer for the casserole’s internal temperature. The original method’s 350°F oven setting and 35-minute bake remain below.
420 Crabmeat Casserole
The method specifies a 35-minute bake. As separate food-safety guidance, check that the casserole center reaches 165°F (74°C) with a food thermometer; a browned top alone is not a doneness check.
Ingredients
- 6 slices sandwich bread, torn into pieces
- ½ cup water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 stalks celery, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 gram marijuana, finely ground
- 8 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 pound lump crabmeat
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- ½ cup sour cream
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place bread in a bowl with ½ cup water; let stand for 15 minutes. Put the oil in a skillet and saute onion, bell pepper, celery, garlic, and marijuana over medium fire until tender.
- Stir shredded cheese into bread and water mixture. Stir in sauteed vegetables and crab meat.
- In a mixing bowl beat the eggs, Worcestershire sauce, sour cream, and salt and pepper. Stir into crabmeat mixture.
- Transfer into a 2-quart baking dish and bake in a 350℉ oven for 35 minutes. Makes 8 servings.

COOKING NOTES
Keep the crab texture in the mix.
- Prepare the vegetables first
- Chop the onion, green pepper, and celery, and mince the garlic before heating the skillet. Cook the mixture until tender as directed.
- Distribute the crab evenly
- Fold the crab through the bread, cheese, and vegetable mixture so each portion gets some. Avoid crushing the lumps while combining.
- Use a thermometer in the center
- The egg-and-seafood casserole needs more than surface browning. Check the thickest central area for 165°F (74°C), away from the dish itself.
Ground cannabis is not a measured infusion.
The ingredient list specifies one gram of finely ground marijuana, cooked with the vegetables. The source does not establish cannabinoid strength or activation, so the gram amount alone cannot give reliable THC per serving. Keep the THC estimator’s assumptions explicit; do not treat an estimate as a tested result. Refrigerate labeled leftovers promptly in a covered container.
Label the dish as cannabis food and keep it locked away from children and pets. Edible effects may take hours; avoid taking more while waiting.
