  1. Nancy REVIEW:

  2. crablover REVIEW:

    This recipe is super easy and super tasty! I will definitely make this again! My kind of pasta!

  3. Jen REVIEW:

    This is a fantastic recipe and I have made it several times. The only thing I change is that I use halved cherry tomatoes. Thanks for this great meal idea!

  4. Allison REVIEW:

    WOW - this was a great dinner! Even my 2 and 5 year old liked it! It could be made with other meat than crab... I am not a very good cook and this was surprisingly good! The only thing I would tell other cooks - have your ingredients ready before you start (rather than scrambling as I did). Enjoy!

    REOlsen REVIEW:

    We varied this recipe by using lemon pappardelle instead of angel hair pasta, eliminating the lemon juice, reducing the pasta to eight ounces and the crab meat to twelve ounces, reducing the butter to one tablespoon, including a tablespoon or so of eggplant-red pepper puree in the sauteed crabmeat, and replacing the parsley with cilantro. Voila! This is an easy and elegant main or side dish, which we enjoyed with spinach-and-gorgonzola and the remaining citrus-accented white wine.
