How to Make Crab Soup in a Slow Cooker

Cris here.

I have always loved crab. Years ago I had an incredible crab soup at a restaurant at a beach side restaurant. This Low Carb Crock Pot Crab Soup is my attempt to recreate it.

Low Carb Crab Soup Notes

• We used a 6 quart slow cooker to make this soup.
• You can find lump crab in most grocery stores in the canned meat aisle. Some stores also carry premium quality crab in the refrigerated seafood section.
• This soup can be made with 8 oz to 16 oz crab depending on your tastes and budget.
• You can use imitation crab in this soup, however, it will increase the carb count significantly.
• We use a low carb marinara sauce to keep the carb count low on this soup.
• All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
  
• Looking for more recipes? Our Recipe Finder can help you find exactly what you need.
• Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
• As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
