Crab Salad

crab meat

plain Greek yogurt ((I used 2%))

green onions (minced (about 1/3 cup))

celery (1 large stalk)

tarragon

lemon juice

Dijon mustard

salt

black pepper

Flake

In a medium bowl, flake the imitation crab meat apart with a fork or your fingers. It’s ok (and even better) to have some larger chunks.

Combine

Add the yogurt, scallions, celery, tarragon, lemon juice, mustard, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.

Just made this and had it on some crackers and it was so good! It’s not super bold in flavor but very clean and fresh. The dill adds a nice touch. Next time I might throw in a pinch of Old Bay or paprika just my preference but it was good as is. Thanks for the recipe.

Really liked how simple this was. No cooking, just mix and go. The yogurt made it feel healthier, and I didn’t miss the mayo at all. I added a bit more lemon because I like it extra zesty. Would definitely make it again.

This was fantastic. Better than any crab/seafood salad we have ever had before. Thank you so much. I had been agonizing about what to do with the package of crab I’d impulsively bought that was sitting in the back of our fridge for weeks. I served it on grilled hamburger buns.

Holy moly, this crab salad is addictive! I couldn't resist sneaking bites straight from the bowl while preparing the rest of the meal! I made it for a recent get-together, and it was the first dish to disappear. I also added a touch of cayenne pepper for a little extra kick.

Absolutely yummy! My first attempt making crab salad. I’ve always been nervous to make it just because I’m afraid I won’t get it right. Happy with the results. My Mom used to make this recipe for us when we were kids and put it in toasted hot dog buns served with chips and pickles, so yummy. Thank you!

Made it for luncheon for work. It got lots of compliments and coworkers asked for recipe. I’m going to make again
