This is from a South Beach cookbook, but I like it with imitation crabmeat a lot better. The original recipe also calls for the jarred roasted red peppers but I find I don't really miss it if I don't have them. One of my favourites and it's even good thrown in a tortilla with a little lettuce for a sandwich! I will say though, it doesn't keep that well - eat it the day you make it as it get kind of watery and the avocado gets a little mushy the next day. I also usually just wing it with the cayenne, depending how much spice I feel like and I add more cilantro sometimes because I love it!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon roasted red pepper, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 lb crabmeat
1 large avocado, ripe, pitted, peeled, and cubed
Directions:
1. Combine, mayo, cilantro, red pepper, lime juice, and cayenne in a medium, non-reactive mixing bowl.
2. Mix in crabmeat well then gently fold in the avocado and serve!
