I like to enjoy a nice glass of wine on Sunday afternoon. The perfect finish to a productive day! I also like to eat tapas or appetizers to accompany the wine. Last Sunday, I came up with this amazing Easy Crab Bites recipe. SO GOOD! Fresh, creamy, crunchy and simply yummy. You have to try this recipe, trust me.
Ingredients
250 g cream cheese
1 can crab meat 120 g. drained
1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
2 Tablespoons of fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon of lemon zest
2 tablespoons of thinly chopped red onions + 1/2 teaspoon for garnish
2 tablespoon of thinly chopped chives + 1/2 teaspoon for garnish
Salt and pepper to taste (don’t add to much salt since the corn chips are salty)
30 Tostitos scoops
Directions
1- In a small bowl, soften the cream cheese.
2- Add the rest of the ingredients, and mix well.
3- Fill each Tostitos scoops with about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture. Garnish with red onions and chives.
Serve immediately
This is perfect as an appetizer with a nice glass of white wine. You can prepare the crab mixture before, and fill the Tostitos scoops when you’re ready to serve them. You don’t have to use Tostitos; you can use cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, endives, small pieces of salad, crackers. The possibilities are endless, just use your imaginations!

This recipe is a definite winner ! I’ve made it twice now . The second time l made it l used a fresh 200 gram package of imitation crab…just put on a plate and flake with a fork . The flavour was awesome !! I like to take the easy route when cooking so l just put it in a bowl and served with tostitos multi-grain rounds . Simply put a few spreaders in the bowl for everyone to load up their tostitos with ! I highly recommend trying this recipe and thank you so much for sharing ! 😃

Thanks Cindy. I’m really happy you enjoy this recipe. It’s a great idea to let everyone spread the crab on themselves.
