Crab Salad (Seafood Salad)

Instructions

  1. Prep the crab:
    Chop or shred the imitation crab into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Make the dressing:
    In a large bowl, mix together mayonnaise, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until creamy and well combined.
  3. Combine:
    Add the chopped crab, celery, green onions, and parsley to the bowl. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated with dressing.
  4. Chill:
    Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving — this helps the flavors blend beautifully.
  5. Serve:
    • As a filling for sandwiches or wraps 🥪
    • On a bed of lettuce for a light lunch 🥬
    • Or as a dip with crackers or croissants 🥐

💡 Tips & Variations

  • For a zesty twist, add a teaspoon of sweet relish or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Want it lighter? Substitute half the mayo with plain Greek yogurt.
  • You can also use real crab meat or a mix of shrimp and crab for a true seafood flavor.
