Crab Stacks

I'm making crab stacks for dinner.  It's an easy, no-cook dinner recipe that my mom put together after having something very similar at some fancy restaurant.  Brent always wants something else to go with it, but I like it by itself.

For 2:
Get a couple of cups
Put about 1/4 crab at the bottom of each cup (I use imitation.  It's already cooked, so I just chop it up and put it right in.)
Cube about 1/2 a small or 1/4 large mango for each cup and that's the next layer.
Cube 1/2 an avocado for each cup and pack that in.
Top each cup with 1/2 diced small tomato.
Cover and chill.
Meanwhile in small bowl, add the juice of a lemon or a lime with a couple of tablespoons of mayo and stir it up.
Grab cups from fridge, take a knife along the edge and turn out on to plate.  Spoon sauce over crab stack.

Let me know if you try this out.  I was a little skeptical at first, but I really like it.  Plus, it has been just too dadgum hot here to cook!
