It is critical to not over blend this recipe. I like to use avocado in place of mayonnaise for salads but that is not the intention for this recipe. The crab and avocado should not be tossed too much or they will cream together. Just a light toss with the dressing is all that it takes.
This is great served stuffed in a large tomato or in sandwiches. It will keep well but only for a couple of days.
