Snow Crab Melts
We all know and love tuna melts but these crab melts with cucumber and asiago cheese are a definite step up from the classic.
The cucumbers are also perfect for serving on the side. The asiago makes it very rich so feel free to go with a lighter cheese such a parmesan or mozzarella.
Thank you to Logan’s Daily Catch for their amazing partnership.
