This salad always brings back memories. It’s one of my childhood favorites so I made sure to ask my mom for her recipe. Super easy and quick to make using just a few simple ingredients that you might already have on hand.
I love inexpensive recipes. Who says we have to spend too much to make delicious food? I have a long list of budget-friendly recipes that I have yet to try. Most of them are a classic that I’m sure will bring a smile to people’s faces like this crab salad or seafood salad. Every bite is nostalgic and rushes back memories.

You should give this crab salad a try very soon. I am confident that you’ll love this good old classic salad. Throw this together with a mixture of celery, mayonnaise, paprika, dill, and imitation crab meat. Might be a little odd to combine seafood with mayonnaise but it works wonder! Serve this as a salad on its own or whip up a crab salad sandwich for the kids. This is also good topped with lettuce and cherry tomatoes. Enjoy this any way you want because it is delicious no matter! What are you waiting for? Grab the simple ingredients and start prepping!
