Crab Salad Take 2
I typically do some preparation of meals on Sunday morning. This week I had a 16 oz. refrigerated can of lump crab meat that was waiting to be used. I decided to throw together a quick crab salad for lunch today on a bed of greens. What resulted was 4 portions of tasty salad that took all of 10 minutes to make and store. I love using crab because it is high in protein and low in calories.
Ingredients:
- One 16 ounce can of lump crab meat (I used Chicken of The Sea and found it in the deli refrigerator case at Costco)
- 2 tablespoons of horseradish mustard
- 4 tablespoons Bolthouse cilantro avocado dressing
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- 3 mini sweet peppers chopped
- ½ cup chopped celery
Directions:
- Open crab into bowl large enough to hold and mix all the ingredients
- Add the mustard, dressing, celery, peppers, paprika and Cajun seasoning
- Mix thoroughly until all are well blended
- Enjoy!!
