Crab and Pasta Casserole

This is a delicious crab and pasta casserole with fresh vegetables and a cheesy sauce. If you need a great fish casserole to take to a covered dish dinner, then this one will sure be a hit. I have taken this to many covered dish suppers during lent and other times of the year. Our family loves this casserole and it freezes really well.
