SEAFOOD SALAD RECIPE

I doubled it and used 1 pound krab and 1 pound salad shrimp. (The really little ones). I also added a few dashes of Louisiana hit sauce. Not enough for heat, but enough to give e it a little zing. A little fresh chopped parsley at the end, too. We make sandwiches, eat it on crackers, on salad greens and sometimes, just off the fork!!

It was really good. I did add chopped black olives and a little co-Jack cheese because I used to buy some at a grocery that contained those two items. I buttered the buns, sprinkled a little garlic powder toasted them and added the lettuce, so good. Tried it on a Ritz cracker, too, wry tasty!

Very tasty, I am sure it will be better after it’s in the fridge for an hour or two.
I made it but reduced the amount of ingredients, for two people, mostly I guessed.
I don’t know how you could go wrong with these ingredients.

So I do a lot of private chefing, and this is the recipe I use. You can do a lot of different things with it to make it your own. I do use 1/2 mayo and 1/2 Miracle Whip, and sometimes I sub lobster for some of the crab. I also use a can of drained sliced black olives. But the seasonings are the same every time, and the response it “This is the best crab salad I’ve ever tasted.” Every time!

INGREDIENTS:

14 ounces crab meat
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1­2 stalks celery (amount per preference), finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1/2 teaspoon dill
salt & pepper to taste

PROCEDURE:

Separate crab into individual pieces (only if compressed in package – if not, disregard) and chop into 1/2­ inch pieces; add to a medium bowl. Add remaining ingredients and gently stir until well combined. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate to store. If you don’t have any Old Bay, use a combination of celery salt and paprika.

NOTES:

If you don’t have any Old Bay, use a combination of celery salt and paprika.
