I would mix it with Greek yogurt & spice it up cajun-style. You could even grill it into a crab-cake-like pattie.0

bowl of salad greens, with some canned crab meat on top, sprinkle some herbs and then add balsamic vinegar or seasoned rice vinegar on top. Feel free to add any other veggies you like!! Thats what I do when canned crab meat is on sale.0

Try low fat or fat free cream cheese on a triscuit. Top with cocktail sauce and crab meat for a nutritious lunch!0

We mix crab meat into stuffed mushrooms. You could do stuffed portabella's with the crab meat, crushed ritz crackers, seasoned bread crumbs, onion and garlic sauteed in some butter, and a little bit of sherry. You make the stuffing and just bake them in the oven, yummy.
I also use the crab in a hot crab dip. Mayo, Cream cheese, diced onion, hot sauce, lemon juice. Then serve it with melba toasts or crackers.0 -

I like to use it in soup-- you can add it to canned soup to add protein and flavor. I like it in healthy request cream of mushroom.
Or you can make your own seafood chowder-- boil chicken or fish broth, add in some frozen mixed seafood (Trader Joe's/Whole Foods have this), add the crab and some corn and a few spices, and finally when everything has simmered for awhile, add a cup or so of fat free half and half, being sure NOT to boil the milk.0
