This springtime dish would go nicely with sliced red and yellow tomatoes drizzled with balsamic vinaigrette; offer corn muffins, too. End the dinner with wedges of chocolate mousse cake. Ingredients:
1/3 cup finely chopped red onion |
3 tablespoons mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro |
3 teaspoons fresh lime juice |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon grated lime peel |
8 ounces crabmeat |
1 ripe large avocado, halved, pitted, peeled lime wedges |
Directions:
1. Stir red onion, mayonnaise, cilantro, 2 teaspoons lime juice, cumin and lime peel in medium bowl to blend. Mix in crabmeat. Season salad with salt and pepper. Brush avocado halves with remaining 1 teaspoon lime juice to prevent discoloration. Arrange avocado halves, cut side up, on plates. Mound crab salad on each avocado half. Serve salad with lime wedges. |
