These finish in the oven under the broiler. If you prefer, brown them in a nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray. Serve sour cream and salsa on the side.

¼ chopped green onions
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons fat-free sour cream
¾ teaspoon bottled minced garlic
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
½ pound lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed
½ cup (2 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
4 (8") fat-free flour tortillas

Preparation:

Preheat broiler. Combine first 6 ingredients, stirring well. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons cheese over each tortilla. Divide crab mixture evenly among tortillas. Fold in half, pressing gently to seal. Place the filled tortillas on a baking sheet. Broil for 1 minute or until the tortilla is lightly browned.
