Ingredients

Servings
  • 3/4 lb crab meat (canned or cooked crabmeat, you can also use imitation crab)
  • 1/4 cup lime juice fresh
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice fresh
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup onion red, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cilantro chopped
  • 1 jalapeño (diced, seeded if preferred for less heat)
  • salt to taste, I used 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • black pepper to taste, I used 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 cucumber peeled and diced, medium
  • 1/2 avocado diced, medium

Instructions

  1. Drain the crab meat if you use canned crab. Drain well then cut the crab into smaller chunks if preferred.

  3. Add crab meat, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until combined.
  4. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Transfer the mixture to the refrigerator and let it rest for 30-60 minutes.
