Ingredients:
vegetable cooking spray
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1/4 cup chopped celery
1 tablespoon minced onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup skim milk, divided
1 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder
1 tablespoon reduced-calorie margarine
2 tablespoons dry sherry

1. Coat a small nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add chopped peppers, celery, and onion; saute until tender. Remove from heat, and stir in chopped parsley.
2. Combine flour and 1/4 cup milk; stir until smooth. Combine flour mixture, remaining 3/4 cup milk, milk powder, and margarine in a large saucepan; stir well. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat; stir in sherry, salt, and hot sauce.

4. Remove crusts from bread; cut each slice into 4triangles. Lightly toast bread triangles.
5. Arrange gratin dishes on a baking sheet. Bake crabmeat mixture at 375° for 15 minutes; arrange toast around edges of dishes. Bake 15 additional minutes or until crabmeat mixture is golden. Garnish with parsley sprigs, if desired.
