Garden Crab Alfredo image

We have a LOT of fresh veggies this year from the garden, so I'm constantly trying to create recipes to use up our bounty! I used Classico Roasted Garlic Alfredo sauce, but feel free to use your favorite. I absolutely love surimi (imitation crab), especially when combined with a cheesy sauce! I'm sure you could substitute the surimi with chicken if you prefer.
