This is going on the table for New Year's Eve.... or maybe they won't last that long. I can even find the crab this time of year! Merry Christmas!
I was just wondering what to do with a pound of crab meat that I took out of the freezer last night! Perfect and scrumptious appetizer for today's game. Merci for sharing! Hope you had a Merry Christmas!
Delicious! Thanks Drick for a wonderfully easy appetizer.
Happy Holiday!

These sound so yummy right now. I just had shrimp for the first time in a very long time because my BF doesn't like seafood - and I was quickly reminded how much it needs to be in my diet. mmm.
I love this for the New Year. And whew - it has some booze in it. Just delicious. Happy New Year!
What can I say - Ditto Trix! Happy New Year!!

Oh my word, those looks just awesome! I love anything that has crab in it!

You had me at "crab"! These look like one of those party type foods that I could just stand there and eat all night long!
