YUMMY!  My only complaint is that it didn't make more...which I suppose would just kill the reason for all this portion control, lol.  I used canned crab (cuz it's cheaper) and I did use the skim milk as directed.  It was a tad loose so I would say maybe whole milk would be better.  Very good though and a lot quicker and easier than I first thought.
