Hi Gina, Just wondering how much sour cream do I need to add? Thanks
No sour cream, thank you for pointing that out. I have updated the directions.
Gina, I’m making this recipe now to take to a party, but there’s something wrong. The instructions say to mix crab, avocados AND sour cream…. But the ingredients do not list sour cream. How much sour cream is required? Light, I assume? Please correct so I can ensure I make it accurately next time.
Hi, Did you make it with sour cream? I was hoping I found a dairy free recipe until I read your post and realized it might have sour cream!
Ok…did anyone answer you regarding the sour cream? This ingredient makes no sense for this recipe. I’m hoping to make this for a party this weekend. Thanks!
How many added points for the baked chips?
I’m adding old Bay seasoning to mines but thanks ill use everything else

How much sour cream?
This looks so yummy! I am going to try this very soon! Thanks!
My BF won't eat crab (unless it's in a crab cake) but he LOVED this. He had his w/ chips. I'm avoiding carbs so I had mine in romaine leaves. Really good.
To say this is delicious is an understatement! It is to die for!! Thank you so much for posting this!
Mmmm… I love guac and crab… this sounds perfect!
