Best Dang Stuffed Crab!

Anyone have a recipe that matches that description?

We have some leftovers from yesterday and I usually make Crab Cakes (Faidley's recipe), but I'm looking for something different this time around.

Just make sure you use real Old Bay seasoning!

Thanks Lad!

I had to wing it on my own.

I added some crab meat to 3 eggs along with a good shot of Old Bay and some Heavy Cream.
Then once the omelet "set" I added more crab meat, torn celery leaves, chopped tomatoes and chopped onion along with some Gruyere Cheese.
If I say so myself, it was pretty good.

A trick I learned when making omelets is to put the ingredients that will be in the middle on the left hand side of the round omelet, before you flip.  If you work the spatula with your left hand, then put the ingredients on the right hand side.

I also "winged it" with the stuffed crabs.
I first made a stock of the crab legs and whatever, simmered it down to about half of what it was.  Then I cut up some old Italian Bread that I was gonna toast for Bruschetta, mixed in sauteed celery and onion along with a couple of drops of Tabasco and the crab then used the crab stock to  moisten the mixture.
Stuffed it into the shells, then sprinkled with (what else?) Old Bay.
Baked at 350 for 20 minutes.
