Ingredients

1 lb. crab meat
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
3 Tbsp. oil-packed sundried tomatoes, chopped
3 Tbsp. mayonnaise
2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 1/2 tsp. fresh dill, chopped
8 slices sourdough bread, thick-sliced
3 Tbsp. butter, softened
3/4 cup brie, rind trimmed, sliced
1 1/2 cups watercress, cleaned

1 medium avocado, peeled and sliced

Preparation Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, fold together crab meat, lemon juice, tomatoes, mayonnaise, mustard and dill.

  3. Grill sandwiches in a large skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side, or until bread is toasted and cheese has melted. Cut in half and enjoy!
