HEARTY CRAB PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a pizza pan and sprinkle corn meal into pan.
• Poke several holes into pizza crust and place into the prepared pizza pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust is heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove crust and turn oven heat down to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat; cook and stir onion and garlic in hot butter until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Stir basil, oregano, and Parmesan cheese into onion and garlic. Spread onion mixture evenly over pizza crust; top with 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.
• Heat imitation crab in the saucepan over medium-high heat until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle imitation crab over pizza, followed by tomato and corn kernels. Top pizza with remaining 1 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Season with Italian seasoning.
• Bake in the hot oven until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown, 10 to 20 minutes.

CRAB PIZZA DIP

Steps:

• Mix softened cream cheese with dash of Worcestershire Sauce until color approximately matches the color of pizza dough.
• Spread mixture in 8" pie dish to form the pizza crust.
• Top the "crust" with hot dog chili sauce (about 1/2 the can) to make the pizza sauce.
• Next spread the crabmeat on top of the pizza sauce as the "cheese".
• Finally sprinkle lightly with parsley flakes to add a dash of color.
• Serve with crackers or corn chips.

TORTILLA CRAB PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425F for Pyrex, or 450F for a metal pizza pan.
• Spread olive oil on pizza pan (I use Pyrex!) to prevent the tortilla from sticking to the pan.
• Place flour tortilla onto pizza pan and spread on cream cheese.
• Top with imitation crab meat and onion.
• Lightly sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne.
• Top with swiss and cheddar cheeses.
• Top cheeses with the snipped basil.
• Bake at 425F (Pyrex) or at 450F (metal) for 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven and immediately slide pizza onto a wire rack so the crust doesn't sweat!
• Cool for 10-15 minutes, slide the pizza back onto the pizza pan and cut into 8 pieces, with a pizza cutter.
• Three-four pieces with a green salad is plenty for two-three persons, or as an appetizer for a few folks!
• NOTE: Use whatever cheese mixture you like ~ my photo with the blue background is made with swiss and mozzarella, with the basil underneath where it can't be seen!
