"I am posting 2 versions of this recipe. This is the original recipe I got off a recipe card in the grocery store a number of years back. I think it is very good as written, but I have made enough changes to it that I decided to post the recipe also as Imitation Crab Wheels Recipe 2. It is a very fast and easy recipe, and oh so yummy. Because you are broiling it the veggis are very crispy and flavorful."
