I had a can of lump crabmeat in the frig and was going to make the usual delicious crab cakes but then decided I wanted to try something different. I hit the jackpot with this crab soup. My hubby and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I followed the recipe exactly, except to save some calories, didn't serve it in a breadbowl. The flavor was wonerful. I served it with a spinach salad and crusty bread for a really enjoyable cold January night supper. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
