Crab Sandwiches
My mom made these when i was a little girl, and i've always loved them. mom always served them for dinner, but they would also be great for a brunch, or lunch. now that i'm an adult, this was one of the recipes that was important for me to get and keep for the generations to come. i hope you enjoy it as much as i do. feel free to add hot sauce or red pepper if you prefer a kick in your sandwich.
