Description
A delightful twist on the traditional crab rangoon, this melt combines creamy flavors into a warm sandwich with a crispy exterior.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup crab meat, cooked and shredded
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 slices of bread
- Butter, for spreading
- Shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
Instructions
