Crab salad
When we were newlyweds, Sean and I would often splurge from the deli and pick up a box of cartons and then use snacks on cookies while watching a movie or chatting after get off work. We love crab salad and love it this way.
It wasn’t until I met a friend Debbie while teaching her daughter Amanda that I learned how easy it is to be for this batch of familiar staples. After that, the deli salad lost all its appeal.
Made fresh with the right amount of everything? That is pure crab happiness.
