Baked Oysters - a Holiday Tradition

3 cn Whole Oysters; Drained,
1 Stick Butter Or Margarine;
Evaporated Milk; Approx 1/2
Milk
Black Pepper; to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Into large bowl, combine crackers, drained
oysters, melted butter and black pepper to taste. Stir gently till well mixed. Add evaporated milk to reserved oyster liquid to make 2 cups. Pour into cracker oyster mixture, stir gently to mix well. Spoon mixture into greased casserole dish ( I use my deep "French White" Pyrex casserole dish). Pour enough milk over mixture to make it "soupy". Milk should be to top of mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes until "puffed" and lightly browned.

Janie- I'm not a fan of oysters- fresh, canned or otherwise, but I thought this recipe sounded simple and interesting. I posted it on another foodie forum and called it "Janie's Baked Oysters"!

lol That came from a ebook I found called The Ultimate Christmas Recipe Collection.
I love oysters raw with a squeeze of lemon. Actually I like them about any way I can get them. Im allergic to fish but I love shellfish. Mussels in white wine are one of my favorites.
Most of the recipes I post are ones I found somewhere else that I wanted to share. I am getting to the point where I feel comfortable putting together dishes on my own without a recipe. Everyone here has taught me alot.
But if you think about it most of what I cook are southern dishes and those are very easy to do anyway lol.
