This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra salt, pepper, and lemon juice to the crab salad, and that helped a lot. The crostini were also a bit too hard for my liking.

I love crab bruschetta! It's so easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little bit of chopped red onion to the crab salad for extra flavor.

This crab bruschetta was a hit at my last party! The combination of crab, avocado, and tomatoes was perfect, and the crostini were the perfect crispy base. I'll definitely be making this again.
