For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture. If fresh crabmeat is unavailable, you can substitute with high-quality canned crabmeat, ensuring it's well-drained. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or a blend of Italian cheeses would all be delicious. To make ahead, assemble the casserole and refrigerate it overnight. Add an extra 15-20 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
