Chilled Cream of Crab Soup

Vicki H. D'Andrea of Millersville, Maryland received honorable mention in The Sunday's Capital's 1988 soup contest for this easy chilled cream of crab soup recipe.

• 1 container frozen avocado dip
• ½ pound jumbo lump crab meat
• ¼ cup minced red bell pepper
• ½ cup minced celery
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup heavy cream
• Tabasco, salt and white pepper to taste
• toasted almonds

Combine all ingredients and chill thoroughly.

If too thick, thin with more heavy cream. Serve in saucer-type champagne or parfait glasses.

Makes 6 servings.
