Fold in crab
Gently fold in the drained crab meat being careful not to break up the pieces too much so the texture remains chunky and satisfying.
Microwave

Add cheese and finish
Top with shredded parmesan and microwave for an additional 1 minute until cheese melts then serve immediately with crackers or bread.
