New Deadliest Catch Season - it is "what's for dinn-ah!"

Ingredients
2 large tomatoes cut in half - allow to get to room temp if you have in fridge. This is low carb friendly...

1- 1 1/2 C crabmeat fresh
1/2 cup almonds
1 C monterey jack cheese - shredded (I love pepper jack)
1/2 c leeks or shallots
1/2 c fresh parsley
1 clove garlic smashed
1/2t oregano (dried) 1T fresh
1/2t basil (dried) 5 large leaves - fresh chopped
1/4C capers (optional)

HOW:
Half and core tomatoes coat with olive oil

Roll the tomato cut side down in almonds
Put on cookie sheet

Combine:

The rest of the ingredients and mix well (gently) place on top of tomatoes and bake for 15 minutes until bubbling. Save a little grated jack (or if you like some parmesan) cheese for the top and if you want to get fancy, just put a little on the top 3 minutes before done and flick on the broiler. But watch closely, you don't want it to burn!!

Garnish with paprika or cayenne - tabasco (if you dare!)
