Sounds good, Irma! I love seafood dishes, and hubby eats more seafood than beef or chicken - good for the files!

I'm thinking of starting to make this for Christmas Eve. Make a salad with it.

Sounds great Irma! I can't wait to try it. Thank you for posting the recipe!

My girlfriend orders this everytime we go out to eat at a mexican restaurant.

I don't cook a lot of seafood (kids don't like it) but this sounds great. However, I can't eat shrimp....any suggestions on a substitute? Maybe another 6 oz of crab plus some kind of white fish to make up the rest of the pound? I'd substitute all crab, but I think that might be too rich. I'd like to make this the next time my b/f is over for dinner.

Ask the person behind the counter where you buy seafood. I think you could substitute any fish. A firm whitefish or scallops or a mix of stuff as well. I want to try this as well, still haven't, but it is on my to do list. I may try it tonight. Having beef tomorrow, so looking for something special for this evening to have with just hubby and I. I think you just planned my evening meal - THANK YOU!!!

Irma, these were my dinner. Just pushed back from the table and all I can say is YUMMY!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. It is a definate keeper!

Made it with pepper jack cheese to spice it up a bit. Hubby thought they were fabulous and he was VERY skeptical.

I served a salad earlier made with romaine, avacado, shrimp and mine had roasted pine nuts as well. I made a raspberry vineagrette to go over it. What a fantastic evening meal we had!!!

THANK YOU!!!!
