How to Make Delicious Crab Salad
- Start by checking the crab meat for any shell fragments, ensuring a smooth salad experience. Rinse and finely chop celery and red bell pepper. Don't forget to finely chop your choice of herbs and squeeze fresh lemon juice!
- In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise and lemon juice. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add salt, pepper, and any optional spices like garlic powder for an extra layer of flavor!
- In a large mixing bowl, gently fold in the crab meat with the diced vegetables and chopped herbs. Pour the dressing over the top and toss everything together until well-coated.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and pop it in the refrigerator. Allow it to chill for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld beautifully.
- When ready to enjoy, plate the salad on a bed of crisp lettuce or in avocado halves. Garnish with dill and lemon slices.

Notes
Use fresh lump crab meat for the best flavor. Always allow the salad to chill for at least 30 minutes to meld the flavors.
