Recipes with imitation crab meat?!
Anything you have would be great. I have Shiritaki noodles for things like stir-fries, and various veggies like bell peppers, broccoli, mushrooms, a little garlic and an onion. Help?

Personally I like it in a cold seafood salad. Just dice the Krab, sauce with mayo and mince up some green onion and shred a bit of carrot.
Serve on a bed of lettuce - viola...low carb and filling.
you can make a cheap and low-carb version of seafood thermidor with half a can of cream of celery soup, some shredded cheese and a bit of water heated slowly - stir until the cheese melts. Mix in diced Krab, add peas if you wish - that would also be good over the shirataki.
Karyn's Cream of Crab Soup
Ingredients
* 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
* 1 (1.25 ounce) envelope hollandaise sauce mix
* 4 cups half-and-half, divided
* 1/4 cup butter
* 3 tablespoons Old Bay Seasoning (I only use 2TBs)
* 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
* 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
* 1 cup whipping cream
* 1 tablespoon cooking sherry
* 1 pound fresh crabmeat
Directions
1. In a medium bowl, blend flour and hollandaise sauce mix with 2 cups half-and-half.
2. Melt butter in a medium, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Slowly add hollandaise mixture, stirring constantly until thickened. Add remaining half-and-half, Old Bay, dry mustard, celery seed, and whipping cream. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low. Add crabmeat and sherry, stirring gently until warmed through. Serve immediately.
i do this with one pack of imitation and one of real, but it can be done with both. and it's amazing.

It's kinda spicy but delicious.
well what I do is not really a recipe but I cook pasta and once it's done I only put on butter and salt, then I butter a pan and cook the imitation crab meat (it only takes 2 min.) on high. It should be a little brown, and once they're done I add it to the pasta. It may sound a but odd but it taste soo good. Hope you try it out :)
I mostly use it in stir-fries, with other seafood like squid & shrimp.
It doesn't need much cooking, so add it last, after the vegetables.
Add vegetables in order of cooking time, pre-cook the noodles.
