We had a nice chilly day here on Monday and I spied one little can of crabmeat in the pantry, so I thought I'd make some crab tarts. These are one of my favourites for Christmas time. They freeze well so I usually make a couple dozen and keep them in the freezer. It makes things so much simpler during the busy festive season----just take them out of the freezer and pop them in the oven for 10-15 minutes and serve. I always make a batch of these when we get fresh crab in the summer, but now I'm back to using store-bought, but they are still simply delicious.
Here's my recipe.....
Crab Tarts
2
eggs
1/2
cup milk
¼
cup softened cream cheese
1
1/4 cup grated mozzarella cheese
2
cans crabmeat--drained (1 cup of fresh crabmeat)
2
tbsp green onion (finely diced)
2
tbsp finely diced red or green pepper
1/4
tsp worchestershire sauce
Dash

Combine
all ingredients and spoon into unbaked pastry cups (3/4 full)
Bake
at 350* for 20 minutes
Makes
2 dozen appetizers
NOTE*******
I made up a half batch of this recipe with the one can of crabmeat.
here's how mine turned out---have a look..................................
These are quick, simple, and delicious!!!
Cheers
