A friend made this for me when he found out that I love crab. It was very good and I asked for the recipe. I usually serve this with rice and green beans.

I cut the recipe in half and it worked out good. I used a Riesling wine for this , and used Greyure cheese in place of the Swiss. We enjoyed it and will make again.
