Recipe dates back 30 years ago. An old time favorite and still is. This is a great versatile dish and you can replace the shrimp with crawfish or crab meat.
 
Ingredients
1 stick margarine 2 celery stalks chopped
1 1/2 cup chopped onion 1/4 cup cracker crumbs
1 large bell pepper chopped 1 can mushroom soup or cream of shrimp
5 cloves garlic minced fine 1/2 can water
1 1/2 cup shrimp (ground) 4 slices bread, wet
2 cups cooked rice 1/4 cup pimientos chopped
1/4 cup parsley black pepper - to taste
salt (sparingly) cayenne - to taste
1 tsp onion powder (optional) 1 tsp garlic powder (optional)
 
Directions
Saute margarine, onions, bell pepper, garlic and celery for 15 minutes on low to medium fire. Add the can of mushroom soup, pimento, parsley and shrimp. Cook for 5 minutes.

Add the bread broken up along with the 2 cups of cooked rice. Season with black pepper, cayenne, onion or garlic powder and salt. Easy on the salt as the soup provides a good deal of the salt needed for this recipe. Add water to the desired softness and simmer for 10 minutes. Pour in a buttered casserole dish; Sprinkle with cracker crumbs. Bake at 450 degrees for 30 minutes or until the top is brown. Crabmeat or crawfish may be substituted in place of shrimp.
