"I put this recipe together while trying to find something to fix on a Friday during Lent. It is a tomato based chili with imitation crab and shrimp. Has some heat to it, but not too spicy for my taste because I don't like food so overly spicy you can't taste any of the other flavors. It is fairly simple to put together too. You can serve it with rice if you like or just alone with some crusty bread on the side and a salad."

Made this recipe for a pot luck. We served it over white rice and suggested to top it with sour cream to calm the spiciness. It was awesome! We got many compliments. We will make this recipe again, especially because it was so easy!

I love to cook. I used to hate it. That was before I became a stay - home mom. I made foods for me and my husband as newlyweds and I know he choked some of it down with a smile. He still jokes to this day about when I made spaghetti and I didn't heat the sauce up. I just poured it over the hot noodles thinking they would warm the sauce - not so! Cold dinner - ick! Well I've gotten a lot better and my ultimate goal is to be the best cook in my family. I like to try new things and especially try to find recipes for foods that most people do not like. My rating system 1 star = will not eat again, will not make again. 2 stars = will not make again, but would eat it, if someone else made it for me 3 stars = Good, not the best I've ever had, but good flavor. 4 stars = Very good. I will make it again on occassion and would even recommend to others. 5 stars = Excellent. The best of it's kind that I've tasted, easy to make, others liked it too. Will make it again and will recommend to others.
