Servings: persons

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

1
Saute the chopped vegetables in the butter and Old Bay Seasoning.
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
Melt the cream cheese into the stock/vegetable mixture.
4
Add the crab, heat and serve.
5
Note: I use Redi-Base seafood stock base, available on line.
