“This creamy crab and cream cheese filling is nestled in miniature pita pockets. The filling can be made a day in advance so that you can simply stuff the pita pockets just before serving. Possible garnishes include thin slices of cucumber, carrot curls, or Italian parsley.” - by Whitney

1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 pound imitation crabmeat

"This recipe is good and basic, but like others, I dolled it up a bit. I added a lot of Old Bay seasoning, fresh lemon juice, cilantro, jalepeno pepper, and I used real crab. I also used fat free cream..." See more cheese and added a bit of lite Mayo. It was very fresh and tasty. "

"This recipe is so quick and so easy! The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I thought the green onion overpowered the crabmeat a little bit. Next time I will use a little less green..." See more onion. But overall, a very tasty recipe!"
