Crab and Avocado Salad

  I have had a few requests from my friends regarding the new "Skinny" foods I have been making. I wish I could take ALL the credit for the ideas, but alas, I cannot. But, I do like to change up a few things according to my tastes...thats why I say it's my way on here.

  Anyhoo, This was absolutely delicious the first time I made it according to the website www.skinnytaste.com, but I figured I could make it better...without adding anything worth calories really...so here we go.


Crab and Avocado Salad:
Servings: 2 
1 medium avocado
1/2 cup imitation crab meat
2 Tbsp. red onion; diced
2 Tbsp. lime juice (I used bottled)
1 Tbsp. cilantro; roughly chopped
1 tsp olive oil
1/4 tsp. chipotle chili powder
salt and pepper to taste

   I start this off by chopping up the onion, cilantro, and crab meat. Put that in a bowl. Go ahead and add the lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper, and the chili powder. Mix that up really well. Now you are going to cut up your avocado into bite size pieces and gently fold that into the mixture. Serve. For a cute way to serve it up, you can put it in the avocado shell. I like to just eat it in a bowl.

Enjoy!!!
