I loved this dish and surprisingly so did my BF. I left out the bacon completely and used light mayo but kept the rest of the recipe exactly the same. I will definitely make this again but next time I will try FF mayo and maybe a sprinkling of parmesan. Read More

Very good. I used real crab instead of imitation and I actually think it would have been better with the imitation as it would have had more "meatiness" to it. But very good! Read More

I used this recipe alongside Lasagna and it was pretty good. I did not make ahead although discovered that I could have. This salad held up really well and actually tasted great 2 days later. I couldn't get the crab meat to "flake" so I just used a random chop. I doubled the recipe with no trouble at all. Great salad for a buffet! Read More
