Exceptional Crab ImperialJuly 24, 2008By JLPearson
"I have been searching for a Crab Imperial recipe that does not use green peppers, pimento ..... this recipe is perfect. I used it as a stuffing for fish by layering in a buttered casserole, the fish, Crab Imperial and another layer of fish. The only other adjustment I made was to use a handful of Pepperidge Farm Herb Seasoned Stuffing instead of a torn slice of bread. Thank You for a FANTASTIC recipe!"
