Makes 6 to 8 servings.
Ingredients:
1. 8 watermelon cups (see below)
2. 1/2 cup mayonnaise
3. 1/2 cup sweet pickle relish
4. 1 teaspoon minced fresh dill
5. 1/2 cup chopped celery

8. 1 pound cooked crabmeat,
rinsed and picked over for shells
Instructions:
1. Make the watermelon cups by
cutting 3 inch tall and 3-inch wide
cylinders of seedless watermelon.
2. Hollow out the cylinders to form
'cups' reserving the watermelon from
the center for another use or to
snack on while cooking.
3. Once the cups are made, keep them on a paper towel until ready to fill and
serve. The cups can be made ahead of time and covered on a tray and refrigerated
until ready.
4. Make the filling by mixing together the mayonnaise, relish, dill, celery, scallions
and hard-boiled eggs.
5. Fold in the crab.
6. Fill the watermelon cups and enjoy.
