Crab stuffed Avocado

Now I know what you're thinking, Kate you don't eat seafood, and I know, but I do when it is this! Talk about yum! If you're still grossed out by crab (like I am, let's face it) then imitation crab is just as good, and probably less expensive too! Otherwise sub in tuna or chicken for the crab if you REALLY can't get past it.

Ingredients:
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped fresh summer herbs (such as basil, tarragon or chives)
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Pinch pepper
2 chopped cloves garlic
Pinch salt
8 ounces lump crabmeat
1/3 cup chopped celery
4 pitted avocado halves

Directions:
1.In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/3 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh summer herbs (such as basil, tarragon or chives), 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar and a pinch pepper. Using the flat side of a knife, smash 2 chopped cloves garlic with a pinch salt; whisk the paste into the mayonnaise mixture. Stir in 8 ounces lump crabmeat and 1/3 cup chopped celery. Divide the crab salad among 4 pitted avocado halves.
