This recipe sounded so good to me I just had to try it. I showed it to my DH and he said, Make it, Make it! So I did, and I am so glad I did, it was excellent! Creamy and a good mix of flavors. Nothing overpowered the delicious taste of the crab. My DH can't wait for me to make it again so he can bring the leftovers to work. Thank you!
