Fra Diavolo Crab Sauce

Flavorful and easy to make sauce. We live in the beautiful Southwest and must buy the lump crab at Sam's. The recipe makes plenty for a dinner party or freezing for later use. Although not described, don't forget to make your version of garlic bread so everyone can mop their plates.
