Tips & Techniques

  • Success Hint

    The lime juice keeps the color of the mashed avocado from darkening. Making this appetizer right before serving time, though, is best.

  • Did You Know

    To remove the pit from the avocado, cut the avocado lengthwise in half around the pit, and pull apart the halves. The pit will stay in one of the halves. Firmly and carefully strike the pit with the sharp edge of a knife. While holding the avocado, twist the knife to loosen and remove the pit.

Ingredients

  • 1  ripe avocado, pitted and cut into chunks
  • 3  tablespoons mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 2  teaspoons lime juice
  • Dash of ground red pepper (cayenne)
  • Dash of salt
  • 2  large cucumbers, cut into 3/8-inch slices (24 slices)
  • 1  package (8 oz) refrigerated flake-style imitation crabmeat
  • Fresh cilantro leaves, if desired

Directions

  1. 1Place avocado, mayonnaise, lime juice, red pepper and salt in food processor or blender. Cover and process until smooth.
  2. 2Spread avocado mixture on each cucumber slice. Top with crabmeat. Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve immediately.
