Low Carb Crab Bisque

10 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 lb canned crabmeat (or fresh, if you have it, can afford it!)
  • 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 8 ounces low-fat cream cheese
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 2 cups chicken stock or 2 cups seafood stock
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Old Bay Seasoning

Directions

  1. 1
    Saute the chopped vegetables in the butter and Old Bay Seasoning.
  2. 2
    Add the stock, wine and tomatoes and simmer until vegetables are soft. Use less stock if you like a thicker bisque - one reviewer mentioned this was a little thin for her taste: no problem withholding, then adding some of the stock at the end until you get it the way you like it!
  3. 3
    Melt the cream cheese into the stock/vegetable mixture.
  4. 4
    Add the crab, heat and serve.
  5. 5
    Note: I use Redi-Base seafood stock base, available on line.
