  1. Loved this! I used fake crab and it was wonderful. I used chives instead of green onions and fat free mayo (which made it curdle a bit but didn't effect the taste). I also left off the tabasco because I didn't want it too hot for the kids. A good easy meal. Thanks!
     
  2. I made this recipe for Christmas Eve along with several others and it was liked by all. You would not have know it was lower if calories than the others. I will make this recipe again.
