Recipe Summary Mel's Crab Salad
I tried for years to duplicate the crab salad that was made in the seafood market i used to work for, but never could. However, I came up with this one and prefer it a whole lot more. My daughter will hide with the batch I make and eat it all. She doesn't like to share. Serve with club-style crackers.Ingredients | Homemade Salad Dressing Recipes
1 pound imitation crabmeat, flaked
½ cup finely chopped celery, or more to taste
½ cup reduced-fat ranch dressing (such as Hidden Valley Ranch® LIght)
⅓ cup mayonnaise (such as Hellmann's®/Best Foods®)
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley
Directions
Gently mix flaked imitation crab, celery, ranch dressing, mayonnaise, sugar, and parsley in a salad bowl until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate overnight, stirring occasionally. Stir again just before serving.
It's really a simple recipe; the only time that is long is the separating of the crab meat. Other then that, it's a quick fix.
