That sounds exactly like what I want for dinner! Absolutely great recipe. Thanks!


Wow this recipe looks like it would taste like the crab salad I tried in 1980 when I was travelling through Biloxi on a trip. I'm saving this for a definite will try.


Sounds delish, saving this too!


I *love* avocado, but it's starting to give me indigestion in my old age!

I'd love to be your cooking buddy.
