Crab Recipes

No, you did not just walk into a fancy restaurant. You can make this springtime dish in your own kitchen--in mere minutes!

These burgers have a true crab flavor that isn't masked by fillers or strong seasoning. Serve on a bun with tartar sauce or with a lemon-juice-dressed salad of greens, sprouts and sliced peaches. This recipe works best with convenient pasteurized crabmeat, usually found in the refrigerated case near the fish counter. If you prefer lump crabmeat, cut it into small, uniform pieces.

Found myself alone this weekend and decided to get a bit creative. Came up with this on a whim after looking through ingredients I had on hand. Easy to make, Easy to clean up and VERY yummy! I have enough to eat this for the next few days too since its only me and the filet was so big.

A combination of a couple of recipes that got my 6 year old excited to help.

These crab cakes skimp on fat but not on flavor. They're packed with chunks of rich crab.

Was craving some mayo-ey crab salad - lightened the calories and added more protein by using light mayo and Greek Yogurt.

A delicious baked dinner entree! Great with steamed vegetables and rice. You can add chopped clams to this as well, or make it with clams alone.

I had a lot of compliments on this, but I think I personally would prefer cream cheese over the velveeta...or half and half.

Easy to make seafood and tomato cream soup.

Savory and easy salad for a complete lunch or dinner side dish.

These potsticker-type dumplings are good as appetizers, or as a lunch or dinner dish, depending on serving size and accompaniments.

They can be frozen either right after the pan-frying step or after the entire process is complete. They reheat well, covered in the microwave or re-steamed.

Tasty but low cal yummy

My son has always love to cook. This was the first recipe he cooked at age 7. He loves it for breakfast, but I like it for dinner with a salad. My son is now 25 and a Pastry Chef at a 4 star restruant.

If you make the rice ahead of time this only takes about 5 minutes to make and it is delicious! If you are trying to cut out a few more calories, use less oil in the dressing and less avocado.
