Recipe Introduction
These savory shells make a marvelous main dish or appetizer and are surprisingly easy to make. The filling can be spooned into the shells, or it can be piped in with a very large tip and bag for a more decorative finish. Finely chopped imitation crab meat can be used in place of the real crab if desired.
