Way better than a Tuna Melt! Sometimes I add a slice of tomato to this sandwich before cooking, which makes it even more delicious.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    In a medium sized bowl place the crab or surimi and pick through to remove any bones or cartilage.

  3. 3
    Spoon the crab on 4 slices of bread and top with remaining bread.

    Heat a griddle to medium-low heat.
  5. 5
    Brush tops of bread liberally with melted butter and place butter side down on hot griddle.
  6. 6
    Cook slowly until golden and crisp on the bottom, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. 7
    Brush tops with melted butter and turn to cook the other side, again slowly until bread is browned, 2 minutes more.
  8. 8
    Cut in half and serve while still hot.

    Well, I cheated and used the fake crabmeat (in the frozen pkg) and just shredded it. I also used my homemade whole wheat bread, so it made closer to 6 servings (still saving some for another day). Used the electric skillet at 350° and turned out beautifully! Two out of 3 kids liked it too. Will save this for a different lunch.
