Yield: 1 Large Salad (Dinner for 1 or 2 people or enough to share as a starter for 2 - 4 people)

Ingredients

1/2 cup Mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Ketchup
1/4 teaspoon bottled Horseradish
1/8 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
1 tablespoon minced Onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh Parsley
One 10-ounce bag mixed Romaine Lettuce
1 pound fresh Crab Meat picked over for shells and cartilage
Freshly squeezed Lemon Juice
1 Avocado
2 hard boiled Eggs peeled and sliced

Instructions

To a medium bowl, add mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, mustard, onion and parsley. Mix well. Set aside and for about 20 minutes to let the flavors meld.
On a circular platter, arrange the greens in a circle around the edge, leaving the center open.
Place the crab meat in the center.
Drizzle the mayonnaise sauce over the crab meat.
Starting at the top, with a very sharp knife, cut down into each avocado until you hit the pit. Cut completely around the avocado, top to bottom, touching the pit the entire time.
Pull the two halves of the avocado apart and remove the pit with a spoon.
Use the spoon to scoop the avocado out of the skin.
Slice avocado meat and squeeze lemon juice, to taste, over the avocado slice
Place slices garnish along with the hard boiled eggs.
Enjoy immediately. (If preparing more than 20 minutes in advance, prepare the avocado just before serving or leave out completely, so that it doesn't turn brown and ruin your salad.)
