Time 4h22m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

8 ounces pasta shells (medium size )
8 ounces imitation crab meat (flake style, shredded )
3/4 cup red bell pepper (diced )
4 tbsps red onion (diced)
2 celery ribs (diced )
3/4 cup salad dressing (Miracle Whip or store brand labeled "salad dressing")
1 cup mayo
3 tbsps whole milk
3 tbsps white wine vinegar
2 tbsps granulated sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp old bay seasoning

Steps:

Boil pasta until al dente. Once tender, remove from heat, strain, and rinse with cold water until pasta is cool. Drain excess water.
Chop all veggies and mince crab meat.
Add ingredients to a large bowl with the dressings, mayo, spices, and pasta.

CRAB PASTA SALAD

Crab Pasta Salad image

Saw this recipe on Taste of Home and had to try it. Their recipe called for a creamy Italian Salad Dressing and I used a Lite version, and called for 1 cup fresh broccoli florets, which was the only thing I did not have on hand, so I left it out. This salad is so quick and easy and is perfect for a hot summer day. So quick and easy, perfect for a Hot Summer Day! It is sure to be a family favorite and the summer has just begun!
