Crab Legs Make Everything Better!

Because:

I’m overdosed on the holiday…

it took well over four days to prepare for…

my refrigerator is full of eggs and ham…

and mustard…and horseradish…

and something pickled…

my sisters and I each made a casserole involving cheese…(that would be three cheesy casseroles)

 

Because:

I stood on the scale this morning…

I’m tired…even though it was a joyous holiday…

I have more ham than I know what to do with…

I want a meal that doesn’t include an egg, ham or mayonnaise…

last Friday I found crab legs on sale…

While I’m soaking the beans for a ham and bean soup later  this week…

I bring you my easy to make crab legs recipe.

Grab yourself 1/2 lb to 1 lb. pre-cooked crab legs thawed..

Place the crab legs on a raised rack in a grilling pan…

Put enough water to come to the top of the grill pan, add 1/2 cup white wine, juice from one lemon and a generous sprinkling of Old Bay Seasoning.

Cover with foil. Place in a 350 degree oven for about 20-30 minutes to steam. Legs will be done when the steam smells like crab.

Note: Instead of serving with clarified butter, I invite you to try a low-fat honey mustard salad dressing to dip the crab into! Sweet!
