Crab & Avocado Salad with Fruit Salsa image

My crab salad with fruity-salsa flavorings is simple and appealing. Sliced avocados anchor and enrich this lively, colorful dish. If possible, select lump or backfin crab. The larger the crab chunks, the fewer shell fragments to pick out.

Crab, Avocado and Mango Salsa Nachos Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-32699

Number Of Ingredients 15

For the Mango Salsa
1/2 cup tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup mangoes, diced
1/2 cup cucumber, diced
1 lime, sliced in half, use one half, juiced for the mango salsa, other half for crab mixture
For the Crab Mixture
1 8oz container crab meat (claw or backfin), picked over for shells
1 3.5 oz container plain yogurt ( I love Oikos)
the other half of the lime, juiced
1 TB Old Bay seasoning
For the Rest of the Nachos
1/2 lemon, juiced
2 large, ripe avocados
dash of salt and pepper
1 bag (or half a bag, depending on how hungry you are) Tostito's tortilla chips

Steps:

  • 1 Chop the mangoes, tomatoes, and cucumbers and place in a small bowl. Squeeze some lime juice over the top and mix well. 2 Mash up the avocados in another bowl, squeeze juice from half of a lemon along with a dash of salt and pepper and mix well. 3 In yet another bowl, mix the crab with the yogurt, and stir in the juice from the other half of the lime. Add the Old Bay seasoning and mix well. 4 If you want to toast your chips before serving, place them onto a foil lined baking sheet, toss with some oil, and bake for about 5-7 minutes at 350. I served mine as is. 5 Place chips onto a serving platter or plates and spoon the avocado mixture into the center of the chips, followed by the crab mixture on the top of the avocados, and then encircle the avocado and crab with the tomato mango salsa.
