For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin layer of avocado slices before the seafood. If you don't have fresh crabmeat, canned crabmeat can be substituted, but be sure to drain it well. For a spicier kick, use a cocktail sauce with horseradish or add a dash of hot sauce to the cream cheese mixture. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill before serving for a pop of color.
