Our family loves oysters so a variety of oyster dishes are often served at family dinners. This one is a favorite and is a variation of one of my husband's grandmother's recipes. It's a winner in our family!

    In a small bowl, combine cracker crumbs and melted butter. Put a thin layer in bottom of a 1-quart casserole dish.
