Avocado Crab Dip

I especially love this cold crab dip, made with avocados as a base.

I remember spreading this on a turkey sandwich once. Sublime.

Start with two bruised, pitiful looking avocados. But only if you want to be like me.

If you don’t want to be like me, use nice, lovely avocados.

Pit them and scoop out the good stuff into a blender or food processor.

Squeeze in some lemon juice.

Then sniff the lemon.

I love sniffing lemon.

Throw in some diced onion…

And a little Worcestershire.

Pulse-pulse-pulse to break up the avocado a bit.

Then throw in some cream cheese.

The end.

Add some sour creaam and some salt….

 

Then dump in the (drained, if you’re using the canned stuff) crabmeat.

I went ahead and pulsed the crabmeat into the rest of the mixture, but if you’re using good lump crabmeat, just stir it in to retain a lot of the texture.

Now, you can refrigerate it for a couple of hours before serving, of course. Just remember that avocado’s involved, and after a few hours, the top of the tip will start to discolor.

Dish it on up…

And surround it with corn chips or crackers.

Enjoy!
