Preparation: Lightly grease the interior of your slow cooker to prevent the cheese from sticking.
Combine Ingredients: In the slow cooker, gently fold together the imitation crab, condensed soup, diced red peppers, and half of the shredded cheese.
Slow Cook: Cover and cook on Low for 3–4 hours. Avoid cooking on High to prevent the delicate seafood from becoming tough.
Add Final Topping: About 30 minutes before serving, sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top and replace the lid to allow it to melt into a bubbly crust.
Finish: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve directly from the crock.
