This is a cool summertime salad, great for cook-outs, family reunions, or parties. You can also make your own variations, by adding more, less, or different ingredients, seasonings, or seafood. This variation is a favorite of my family.

Step 2
Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, garlic powder, oregano, turmeric and sugar in a large bowl. Mix in the bell pepper, celery and chopped eggs.
Step 3
Add seafood and toss until evenly combined. Garnish with eggs slices and sprinkle with paprika.
Step 4
Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours or overnight before serving to let flavors blend.

I am a seafood lover but this just didn't hit the spot... Seemed like it was a little bland; like it needed more of a sauce to add-or something special to the sauce to make it better. Read More

This was great! I used frozen cooked shrimp (thawed) but just added those the crabmeat and tuna the last 3 minutes. A big hit at a recent pool party. Even those who are not lovers of fish devoured it....thanks for a "keeper" recipe. Read More
