Red Snapper Stuffed w/ Crab Florentine

This creation was inspired after fishing trip in Port Aransas. There are a few steps to it, but is is very quick and easy, in the 45 minute range.
** For the prepared picture, I had used a little of the parmesan crust from
Parmesan Crusted Cod. Recipes are a guide/suggestion, they are in a fluid state, and change based on how you fell that day.
