The Appetizer of the Year... Our Year...


Every  year, friends and family ask me for the recipe for our wonderful, amazing crab puffs appetizer... So, to make it easy on all of us, I thought I would just post it here, for whomever forgot, or wanted it, or, just found it...
So, here it is...
1 stick butter
1 jar Kraft Olde English cheese spread
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
1 1/2 tsp Miracle Whip
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1 can GOOD crab meat-not the cheap stuff...
6 english muffins- I prefer Thomas...
Soften butter and cheese in a medium to large bowl
Add seasonings and Miracle Whip
Rinse crab meat THOROUGHLY, in a strainer, til there is no 'fish scent'.  Squeeze out moisture and pat dry with paper towel
Mix into other ingredients
Spread evenly on english muffins
Place on cookie sheet, and put in freezer for half an hour
Slice into sixths. At this point,  you can either place in a gallon freezer bag and save, or...
Preheat broiler
Place on cookie sheet, and broil til golden brown... 5-10 minutes.  Be careful, HOT!  place on nice plate, and get out of the way!!! They will fly off ...
Enjoy!!!!

A Once in a While Post

It's been a while since I have posted. Been too busy with life, to blab about it...
In the last couple weeks, we've worked like crazy, celebrated Thanksgiving twice, flew to New York, saw a play, a parade, an aircraft carrier, and a million people... Nothing says big, like going to NYC.

Life is good....
