I made these again for my wife. There where none left. You can also take this stuffing wrap it around shrimp making stuffed shrimp or put it in an empty crab shell sprinkle with dry bread crumbs and paprika and bake it. I have also wrapped it up in a piece of fish and fried it and put a nice size scoop on a greased pie pan put flounder on top put lemon juice, salt, and good coating of Old Bays seasoning and bake at 350 until flounder is white and flakey.
