Canned Crab: Yay or Nay?
Crab Salad with Heirloom Tomatoes on Low Carb Crackers
We decided to buy a tub of canned lump crab meat from Costco, Chicken of the Sea brand. We could see through the tub and the lumps looked pretty tasty so we decided to give it a shot. Our previous experiences with canned crab had not been so great, so we were pleasantly surprised when we tasted our creation and it was fresh tasting and delicious. And, I didn't have to crack any crab legs.
Crab Salad:
-1 lb lump crab meat
-1/3 cup mayo
-1 juice of 1 lemon
-2 hot peppers, seeded and minced
-salt and pepper to taste
Mix all ingredients thoroughly and serve with crackers, or in lettuce cups, etc.

Dinner at Home
Sauteed Brussel Sprouts
These brussel sprouts were trimmed and halved, seasoned with salt and pepper and sauteed in a bit of olive oil until tender. Very easy.
Steamed Crab and King Crab Legs
Yum, yum, yum.
Garlic Butter
1 head of garlic, cloves peeled and minced cooked in 1/2 stick of butter over love heat until crispy. Throw a spritz of lemon juice in there at the very end for a bit of acidity if you like.

Dinner at Home
Quick Seafood Stew
Alexis wasn't quite sure what to make for dinner, but she had a variety of seafood and some brocolli and made a quick stew, seasoned with Thai chili paste, that turned out to be quite tasty.
-2 cans diced tomatos
-1 onion
-5 cloves garlic, peeled
-1 red bell pepper, seeded
-1 handful fresh cilantro
-1 tb Thai red chili paste
-1 lb brocolli flowerettes
-2 filets dover sole, cut in chunks
-10 shrimp, peeled
-1 can lumb crab meat, drained
-salt to taste
Puree the tomatos, bell pepper, chili paste, garlic and onion in the food processor. Pour the mixture into a large pan and rbing to a boil. Add the seafood and simmer for a minute or so. Add the brocolli and simmer until tender. Season to taste nd sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro. If we weren't low carb, we'd probably eat this with brown rice.

Fresh Blackberries with Freshly Whipped Cream
A very yummy dessert, that's (sorta) healthy.
