CRAB SANDWICHES
My mom made these when I was a little girl, and I've always loved them. Mom always served them for dinner, but they would also be great for a brunch, or lunch. Now that I'm an adult, this was one of the recipes that was important for me to get and keep for the generations to come. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to add hot sauce or red pepper if you prefer a kick in your sandwich.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Split english muffins, and place on a greased baking sheet.
- Combine crab, mayo, and onion. Mix until completely combined. (You may add more or less mayo depending on how "wet" you like this mixture.).
- Taste, and add salt and pepper as necessary.
- Spread crab mixture evenly over the muffin halves.
- In a small saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Add the flour, and whisk to combine. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Stir in milk, and whisk to keep lumps from forming.
- When milk is hot (DO NOT BOIL), add the cheese, continuing to stir constantly, until the cheese is fully melted, and the sauce thickens.
- Taste, and add salt and pepper as necessary.
- Top the muffins with the sauce.
- Sprinkle with extra cheese to taste, and with paprika for color.
- Bake at 350 F for 20 minutes, or until the sauce is golden and bubbly.
- Serve immediately.
