Quick Crab Alfredo Recipe image

I use canned soup and sour cream to hurry along a rich sauce that coats imitation crab. When spooned over penne pasta and garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and minced fresh parsley, it's an easy entree that looks and tastes elegant.-Susan Anstine, York, Pennsylvania
