Crab with Avocado Review by Clareen M. on January 4th, 2012:

Very good but I did mix in the green onion for more flavor. Tastes great on cucumber rounds!

Crab with Avocado Review by Paul on April 3rd, 2011:

Made this as a starter, it's quick and easy. It needs more lemon juice and paprika for my taste (maybe some coriander and garlic too, but I didn't try). I found a dash of tabasco works well too.
