Simple and healthy. My dad and I have been making this salad with our left-over crab for years. My husband and I often find imitation crab (also called "krab") on sale at the store. It is delicious when made into a salad and served on a sandwich. "Krab" comes from a meaty white fish like pollock. It is also very good for you. Find out more about where imitation crab comes from here: http://ask.yahoo.com/20030110.html. I love having this salad ready-to-go in my fridge so I can eat it any time with very little prep. You can also save yourself some calories and carbs by eating the salad over a bed of lettuce and by using low-fat mayo or non-fat yogurt.
Ingredients Yield: 4-6 sandwiches
1 1b cooked crab shelled and shredded (Imitation is great too, just cut it up into small chunks, if you use crab lump meat it is ready to go)
1/2 Cup Mayonnaise
1 1/2 tsp (1/2 tbsp) Emeril's Essence seasoning or other Cajun style seasoning
Mix everything together in a bowl. Place a spoonfull or two of the salad on a slice of bread and top with another bread slice. Enjoy it grilled with cheese or cold. We think imitation crab is better grilled and the real stuff is better cold.
