I made this using Old Bay as the crab boil and red pepper instead of the green and red. This is creamy, flavourful, and was terrific over fresh spinach. I wouldn't miss the egg if it wasn't in there in case you are in a hurry and want to make this. And thanks to gailanng, I Slap Chopped it all! Made for 1,2,3 Tag. Thanks! :)
