*Add as much or little as you like. I use 1-2 cups of fresh crabmeat & tiny shrimp. Try adding clams, lobster, whatever your heart desires. It’s all good!

Very low in carbs ! Great for restricted diets.

1. Place the chopped celery, green onions, and onion in a stockpot and sauté in olive oil until the onions are translucent, about five minutes. Add the pureed tomatoes, minced garlic, basil and chicken stock to the pot. Bring to a medium heat and add fresh ground pepper and Old Bay seasoning, to taste. 
2. Bring the pot up to a boil and add your seafood. Simmer on a medium heat for about 20 minutes. 
3. Before serving, swirl in the the cream. You can serve with little fishy crackers for a cute touch! Enjoy!
